Are you thinking the X and Droid 2 will eventually be supported by WiFi Tether for Infrastructure Mode? I tried to find a way to contact the developers of the App, but didn't see any links to a place to leave comments.

I have no idea. I hope so. The only internet I have is my phone so I have to do it the hard way (lan cable from my tethered PC to the PS3). Infrastructure mode would be so much easier.

SO much easier! If this is already happening on other Android devices... it shouldn't take too much for it to happen on the Droid 2, should it?

Will we be able to upgrade to 2.2 (Froyo) after rooting the DX?

And, is there a reverse process to be able to un-root the DX? and why would I need to?

No, rooting allows you to take superuser permissions over device...

yes you can also unroot with same GUI
i think when the OTA froyo comes out the device will have to root before upgrading

Rooting allows fee-less wifi tethering, screen shot apps, and a whole host of root only programs that are availble for use only by rooted devices.

All we need now.............. is the Root for my Droid 2!!

Since the Droid X Froyo / 2.2 update was leaked, is someone working on the Rooting process so that when the rest of us get 2.2 on our DXs we can immediately Root it?

And, I just got notification from VZW that me DX was shipped -- and it was shipped 7 days earlier than what I was expecting. Will have DX in hand tomorrow night!

Enjoy your X! If I could only figure out how to make my battery last longer and get text and Email notifications on my home screen, my Droid 2 would be everything I hoped it would be

Go to Market and look for SMS Unread count.

Has widgets for unread SMS/GMAIL/MISSED Call.

No widgets anywhere for unread Exchange E-mail or G-Voice. Been looking for a while.

That is so odd that something as simplistic and vital to smart phones, Email, is not able to be updated on a home screen!?

Thanks for the SMS help though, those are more important anyway since they are sent by friends in 'real time' and are crucial to be responded to fast.
