Will rooted phones with CM rom receive an update? Or do we have to wait until CM makes a rom?

If you a Cyanogen Modded phone, OTA updates are disabled, so if you want to taste the donut, you could try the experimental Cyanogen mod or wait to see how well the little fracas with Google works out. It might be some time before he is able to release an update that complies with their requirements.

As an alternative, you could unroot your phone and get the official OTA update.

Thanks, I dont mind waiting. From what I've read, there's really not that much appeal to the stock donut release to make me un-root and then re-root when CM comes out with his release. It's not like there's flash support or anything new and exiting...

Got mine an hour ago.. Camera interface is better (seems faster). Market is better which I already knew about. The universal search doesn't seem to be working for me as I expected to..maybe next update?
