Interesting discussion. I've had my Droid since Jan. 2010, I'm out of warranty, and I've never rooted. I may someday, but I don't see the need right now. I believe the question is will there be an official OTA version of Gingerbread for the Droid, and the answer is nobody knows. Motorola has a list of Android versions for its phones, and for the Droid, all it says is Upgrade to 2.2 is complete. It doesn't say its going to remain there, like it does for other phones. Until they officially announce that there will be no more updates, then I will stay unrooted.
