Does an encrypted boot loader mean no rooting or does it simply make it harder to do?

I think you can root and get super access but you can't load custom roms (similar to the milestone)

Re: INC versus X

I asked the same question on the TP forum and Carla moved it here. I made a statement on my thread that I'm not sure why I would upgrade the ROM on the INC or X. I did it on the Treo, 6700 and TP because the phone was almost unusable without ROM upgrades. Haven't used an X yet but the INC exceeded my wildest hopes in usability and performance. I do want to be able to get root access but looking for what improvements might be expected with unofficial ROM upgrades.
