@YankeeDudeL,
Yeah, I'm starting to feel "Dared" too, especially now that January 22nd and February 1st have come and gone, with nary a peep from the Powers That Be. I am still hopeful that all the work they have put into porting the 2.1 to the Droid will come to fruition and we will see it soon; then again, maybe those couple of glitches are impossible to overcome.
If I knew for certain that we weren't going to get 2.1, I would go ahead with rooting and load Bugless Beast and be done with it. But I hold out like almost everyone else, and wait.
