No, rooting and unlocking the bootloaders are two different things.

Rooting means you gain complete control of the device, usually through a hack. Right now we have "Temp Root." Its temp because we cannot write to the device and have it stay permanently. Temp root give us the ability to do many things we could not normally do like WiFi tether and ad blocking...

Unlocking the bootloader will allow us to make the root permanent. It will also allow us to re-write the recovery with a custom recovery. A custom recovery means we can then flash custom ROMS.

The two kinda go hand in hand but I hope that clears it up some.

That makes sense thanks. So basically it sounds like as soon as they release the bootloader unlock we will have perm root? well that is unless someone can hack the bootloader quicker than HTC releases i suppose. Sounds like a challenge to me =)

If HTC is going to unlock it, isnt that going to get Sprint mad? I want the Sprint Hotspot thing to work.

I remember the 4g was crack in 1 month? May 26 was 3D release. 1 more week to go.
