Root NEW Evo and Root?

[bearjew7080]

What's up guys. Not 100% sure so I thought i'd just ask. But i just broke my awesome EVO last night and the insurance company sent me what looks like a brand new EVO, non-refurbished.

Phone stats: android 2.3.3
Build 4.24 release -keys
sofware: 4.24
pri; 2.15_003

My phone that broke had Kings r3 neon and taimet sbc kernal and I loved it. Question is, this new phone rootable? I remember people saying the brand new evo's dont have root capability yet... I would be UPSET if i had to leave this stock ROM crap!
