    Default stick with cupcake or root?


    I currently have version 1.5 on my g1 and I thought about rooting it but I don't know a lot about it. I was wondering if you guys can help by posting ur opinion if I should root or not. And also wat other things I can do if I did root it. Thanks.

    I used to have a T-shirt that said next to Godliness is Root. Yeah I was a Linux geek back in the day.

    The ability to throw on new OS's, Apps2Sd, move your cache, run root apps. Its just pure fun.
