I click the shortcut for gmail. I get to an email, I choose to repond to the email. Within the text boxes I try long presses and menu key presses. No Voice to Text option. The long press on the text box let me switch input methods, so I switched from Swype to the original keyboard and still no Voice to Text option. I've got ColorNote, a sticky note type app. It's menu keys options are different than Gmails...so I guess it is up to each app to include it or not. Actualy I don't see it in the default web browser either.
The only place I have it is in Handcent text messaging. Am I missing something, somehow?

Your not missing anything. No one has speech-to-text with 2.0.1. Except voice search.
I have not rooted but my understanding is this:
If you root and only root, the official OTA update is available to you. I've got a feeling there are not that many who have rooted and not applied (flashed) qa ROM.
If you root and apply a ROM the ROM itself can block (and I think they all do but I could be wrong) the official update.
If you take the update and do not like it you may not be able to immediately "go back" to a rooted state. The update itself may change the the root process and people will again need to figure out how to root. Once they do though, the ROMs have already been created so there won't be a delay between rooting and enhancements, as there was the first time when the first OTA opened the door to let the Droid be rooted.

Wow, you guys are acting like this is the greatest thing to ever happen. Go back to your lives (that is, if you have one) and the update will come soon enough.

If you really want to know for sure when the update is released just visit this page System Update: DROID by Motorola and click on the 2 links displayed ( Benefits of System Update & System Update Instructions ) and see if the update info has been changed from ESD56 and/or 2.0.1 to the latest update info ESD79? and/or 2.1.
When you see those pages updated you will know for sure it is happening.
This is just speculation on my part, but if we don't get live wallpapers, the new app launcher, and 5 screens with the card system...
...does anyone think it may be because GOOGLE has not optimized them to run in landscape mode? Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think the Nexus One has the ability to force landscape mode on any of its homescreens like the Droid can when you open the keyboard.
