I haven't seen a discussion on this or a means of fixing it here so I posted it. Mods it won't hurt my feelings when you delete if I'm mistaken...

Hmm. That was pretty interesting

Yeah!.. can't believe there's not more discussion of this !? Anyone heard anything new? In two minds about whether to root my new Desire now... :/

id say just go ahead and do it for now. If it was a big problem we'd probably be hearing more about it.

And if you ever need to revert its possible
