> guess i should have done some research, one of the reasons i got android was to root the thing, now i am reading that this droid 2 is like root proof… haha son of a bitch this phone has all kinds of crap running on it that i would love to kill

It will definitely be rooted, the phone is just new so like Shady said it might take a little time. It runs just as fast as a rooted droid out of the box, just no custom roms or anything yet.
