For the poster that doesnt experience lag, thats awesome. When I typed this response my keyboard can't even keep up haha

Actually, the current 2.1 ROM's for the Hero have working camera and camcorder. Basically the only thing that doesn't work is visual voice mail.
As for your last post about processor speeds (I'm a bit lost, I'm assuming you mean between the moment and hero). I don't know if there's going to be a major difference between the speed of operation of the two. The Moment users think their faster processor is going to make all the difference, and it very well might, only time will tell. However, judging by the speed of the custom 2.1 ROM's that are out now, that speed difference won't be noticeable. The ROM's that are out now aren't even for Sprint (they're from Verizon and the Eris), and yet there's literally no lag in the operation of them. When ROM's based on the official Sprint 2.1 update come out, it'll be blazing fast and shouldn't have any bugs. Heck, it wouldn't surprise me if even the stock 2.1 is extremely fast (but I'm still sticking with custom ROM's).
The thing that really worries me about the moment is the lack of support from Samsung. Even a lot of the moment users will tell you that the support from samsung has been pretty bad at providing timely maintenance releases.
In the end, since you're going to have the phone for quite some time, you might as well root and really start having fun with this phone. You'll never look back if you root and put a ROM on (and then another, and another, and another lol), it's so much damn fun
