Is it just me or is this unconscionable?
It's pretty pathetic, I agree. From what I understand, based on reading a few of the posts since the update, the new firmware can still be rooted.

"Thanks! Tis means that it can be rooted!"

The other thing that seems to be happening is if your phone is already rooted, and has the 911 fix already, your data doesn't get turned off. I don't know if that is correct though.
