Yeah, I haven't given any thought to rooting my Bionic in the least.
This is coming from a formerly rooted-D1 junkie.
This is a new phone. Why root so early, especially when ROMs are just (still) being developed and stabilized?
It's a new phone...get to know it....get to love it.
One of the big benefits of rooting in the past was removing all the bloatware that would come on the phone.
Bionic is not immune to the bloat...it's got some...but it also has the onboard memory to handle it and ALL the apps you wanna throw on it (unlike the D1, which was a huge problem and almost necessitated an immediate root!).
Hell, I was a huge ADW/LauncherPro advocate on my D1 and loved customizing every inch of that phone's screen.
I'm still using the Bionic's stock home. I don't find it cumbersome at all.
Again...using what the phone was intended for...at least for now...just to get a fair idea of what's to love and what's to lose when/if I ever decide to root this thing (currently, not even thinking about or desiring a root on the Bionic).
