I haven't tried a 2.1 ROM yet. Seemed too unstable... I do like to play with my devices but when the chance of bricking them is so high I run weary. I accidentally flashed a newer cyanogen without updating my radio first ... it would lockup on boot. Good thing that one was recoverable by flashing an older cyanogen again.

And for the second part.. I agree partially: It shouldn't void your damn warranty just because you get root . That's what's stupid and not "open" about it.
