Why are people worried about this? If you can't go from 2.2 leak to 2.2 official, just flash your damn phone back to 2.1 then check for updates again.I am kinda worried about not getting the OTA updates but my goodness is 2.2 amazing.
s... would it be better to do this on an freshly factory reset phone? I have launcher pro and all kinds of custom buttons and dock, etc. Will these ride through the update ok?
Have you installed any customized themes?
Have you removed any bloatware?
If you answered yes to any of these questions, I'd recommend not only a factory reset, but a factory reset, cache wipe, and a flashing of the phone.
Some people who have installed themes then uninstalled them still had update issues.
Some people who thought they reapplied the bloatware they removed still had update issues.

Flashing is ridiculously easy.

Custom roms are still long to impossible. All we are doing is loading an official signed Motorola ROM. Anything custom won't be signed and won't work unless we find a way to sign them or make the bootloader not care and not brick.
I can't believe there are still people of this mindset. oooooo the dreaded efuse is brick our phones. please. they said this thing was locked tighter that fort knox. What happened? Within a week, we had root, just after a month we had a custom recovery. I'm not saying custom roms are gonna happen this week. But to say its next to impossible, after all that, just shows a lack of faith on your part. We will have Roms on this thing. Its just a matter of time. FWIW, goooo Koush!
So far history is proving this right. Signed bootloader means barring a lucky mistake on Motorola's part allowing a way around it, no custom ROM.
I have no idea why people like you keep insisting that there has to be a way. I will be pleasantly suprised if custom ROMs happen, but not holding my breath.
