question about 2.1 ota update and rooting. i thought i read before that the 2.1 will break root access, but i can't find it now. in the request to keep all rooting inquiries in this thread, i'm asking here.

should i root now, before the update is pushed? i haven't gotten around to doing it yet, but don't want to lose the ability to do so.

ETA: looks like i found the answer in one of the other many 2.1 upgrade threads. Looks like I need to root now before installing 2.1. Is it possible that the 2.1 can "unroot" me? Is that why the app on the market place disables OTA updates? Or is that as long as I'm rooted before the 2.1 update, i should be good for my phone to stay rooted after the update?

I've been pretty busy lately, and all i want to do is make sure I don't miss the boat to root.
