I WANT WIFI TETHER! lol
You don't have to install a Custom ROM to root your phone. It is very simple actually here is a guide: Obtaining Root | Root Your Droid
or if you don't want to do it yourself have DroidMod:DroidMod - Index do it for you. Either way they are both simple.
Now if you would like to install a custom ROM I suggest doing a little research before you do that.
Here is a great guide for it as well :
How to Install 2.1: The Easy Way Refined with New 2.1 ROM - Droid Forum - Verizon Droid & the Motorola Droid Forum

Hope that helped a little .
