I just got a replacement TB that has Froyo. SHould I root w/ Froyo, or should I load the new GB OTA and root w/ that, or does it just not matter?
 
It doesn't matter as far as the root process with revolutionary goes.it works the same in both cases.

Depends largely what you want to do after. If you want to continue on a rooted stock rom,be aware that rooting prior to the ota will prevent you from taking it until you re-install the stock recovery. While this isn't a big deal,it may be easier to simply wait till after the ota.

If you wish to run a custom rom(even if its just a rooted stock rom) go ahead and root now. You're just going to change the rom anyway,so there's no benefit from waiting till after the ota.

One last scenario: if you just want to be s-off so you can install whatever RUUs you want,and have no intention of installing clockwork or installing root files,go ahead and do that now.

Hope that clears it up a lil for you :)
