you absolutely CAN root. but as of right now, you cannot flash back to 2.1 with the sbf method we have been using for the past 6 or so weeks. i am sure there will be a method soon enough, but as of right now, it is not possible once you have installed the leak.

well if you are on OTA 2.2, I hope you've read NOT to flash the 2.1 sbf. My understanding is it'll brick your phone.
Next I am on OTA 2.2 and have rooted my phone via the D2 way. Here's a site that made it extremely easy. Hopefully you are not computer illiterate and have a general understanding of what your doing. Takes some time too to load things
