I guess the key statement here is that you don't understand. In fact, none of us do. HTC needs to do this right and not brick devices in the process. If they need a month, so be it.

Maybe they need time to figure out the password?

It depends on what they are doing in that 1+ months. There is speculation that HTC may use this time to add things like a watermark. Personally I don't think is should take that long either and this timeframe has me concerned we may see things in the "unlock" that we may not like.

I have my reserves to about what else they could specifically be adding or locking out in this update... maybe making some apps or customizations incompatible while still giving us the promised unlocked bootloader... still good news none the less and a move in the right direction..... now the waiting begins.........AGAIN

not saying they won't do it..but why can't companies do things within the 30 days :/ (PS this goes for all companies)

I agree 100%. If I wasn't in love with my 3d I would have returned it. But even without root this phone is awesome. So I'll be patient n wait. Plus in a year I'll be able to upgrade again thanks to sprint premier.

Huge step in the right direction for HTC. It gives me some confidence that if I decide to move back to HTC when I upgrade that I won't get hung out by the manufacture.
