So I'm just about ready to retire my old Eris (girl is still running like a champ though, even if she does have a pretty severe limp) and really want to pick up an X2. I've ready pretty much every forum post both here and droidforums.net, and am really concerned about the issues (reboots, lag, memory issues, sound popping, video recording problems, bad viewing angles on the screen -which I've seen for myself @ the VZ store, etc)... concerned enough that I'm considering the Inc2 instead.
Given all of the issues, the X2 has some great features that I think could make this a better phone than the Inc2 for the next 2 years'ish: dual core processor, HDMI out, bigger + higher res screen, just to name a few.
I've read the memory performance tweaks thread and it seems like a pretty straight (enough) forward solution for the time being. I've heard that rooting is pretty simple now with gingerbreak, but haven't heard too much about re-flashing back to stock in the case that I want to return the phone and don't want to let VZW know that I rooted it.
Any info/advice here?
