Root Question about rooting & pending updates

I have a question for all you rooting mavens. How, if at all, will rooting my Vibrant effect the pending Froyo and TMO updates that are due out soon. Will the updates take place the same as if the phone was not rooted at all or must other steps be taken to take advantage of the pending updtates. Thanks in advance - SNS

rooting should be fine as long as you DO NOT
1. change to a different kernel or even rom
2. do not delete bloatware since the ji6 will update some stock apks such as media hub and sims 3 game.
3. apply any kind of lagfix
4. apply any kind of theme/framework changes

doing any of these before the OTA will result in a soft brick.

i just flashed back to stock JFD build via odin to play it safe.
