Wow. thanx a lot i am too surprise why i dont think this way.

i already have lots of script in Ubuntu to make so many things automated from Confiruing Server to backup!

but never thought in this way.

You shouldn't be charging for some parts it keeps the phone from seeing the ssdcard.

As for reverting back to "unrooted" you'd just need to reflash your phone with the original rc30 update, which is to say redo the part where you boot up pressing home and power and press (I believe) alt L and alt S only instead of the modded update.zip you'd have the original.

And finally to the person who says they have a bunch of scripts laying around could you share some with there purposes?
