Root access is very powerful. Needs to be used with care but should still be available to the user

  • you dont have to root your android phone to use apps. there are very few apps that need root to work, a couple of them are cpu overclocking ( yes i can overclock my t-mobile g1) and tethering which newer versions of android phones now have built in.

  • they are not jailbreaking android for apps, they do it to circumvent the carrier phone limitations. for example AT&T limits the backflip to only android market place apps, this is not android's doing this is the carrier's doing. The carrier essentially owns a custom flavor of android, they do with it what they wish.  So jailbreaking is undermining the carrier layers.

  • As a consumer and not an expert, I chose Android over iPhone because I paid $99 for a Motorola Droid with 16gigs of memory. I pay $130 a month for service on my wife's Touch Chocolate, my son's text flip phone, and my Droid. Plus, I can do everything with my Droid, an iPhone can do.
