Don't mean to stir up a hornets nest here but to me Root = an opportunity for a load of techie types to get hard, knowing that the majority of us have no idea what they are on about. This thread is a case in point. The OP posted a pretty straight forward question, to be greeted with a barrage of tech bollox and overclocking speeds (Or whatever they are) posted by tech dweebs.
I work with people like that. Very clever but no "nounce". Incredibly skilled in ONE thing. Fantastic programmers, but can't make a cup of coffee...
They cause confusion when asked for advice because they lack the social skills to interact properly and then in the midst of the confusion, snort, look down on you, sigh and then carry on talking bollox.
That's my experience of them anyway
To me, Root = unneccesary faffing with the phone. The only real advantage WAS App to SD but with Froyo comes the ability to do that now.
So you can get rid of the bloat ware.... have you actually seen how much of the memory it takes up? Hardly worth crying about is it. I could go on, but I've decided to place a tin hat on my head and wait for the inevitable barrage that is coming my way. Oh well, the price of having an opinion I suppose.
Can Geeks argue? Not sure lol
