Rooted or not?

Was reading a post where the poster says "most of us" will probably not take the update, for fear of losing root..

And I wondered, which is it, the "most of us", rooted or not?

I'm in the same boat, I am enjoying NOT having to screw with this phone too much to get it to do what it is supposed to do....plus I have no idea what I am doing yet.

Re: Rooted or not?

I only rooted to change the CPU during sleep....if they fix the battery issue...then I don't really need root. At least not now...
