Thank you.
Now, is rooting that important that it should keep me from purchasing?

Benefits of rooting: uninstall bloatware preloaded app and free wireless hotspot as well as custom roms

I've had my EVO since the release and never rooted

It's not a big deal to me because I love HTC SENSE if I had a sammy or motoblur I would definitely root

Rooting does absolutely nothing to your sense experience. You're missing out. the removal of the bloatware and tethering is reason enough to root. Cant count how many times tether helped me look at NT at work.

Remember the Linux-based EVO game console? We can certainly forgive you if you don't, but it did actually end up shipping, and "sold out" according to the company the behind it. Now that company, Envizions, is back for a second try with another big promise: an Android-based game console dubbed, naturally enough, the EVO 2. First announced earlier this year, the console is now supposedly set to hit the US sometime this fall and, to prove that it's not completely vaporware, Envizions is making EVO 2 developer units available today -- the unit itself is "free," although developers will have to pay an annual $149 software support fee.

As for the console itself, it will apparently pack an unspecified 1.2GHz Samsung processor, a "modified" Android 2.2 OS, and both a TV remote and game controller. Leaving no stone unturned, Envisions says it's also planning to add a motion sensor by the end of the year, and it even has its own points system in mind that will let you buy Android games with "EVO tokens." As you might suspect, however, there's still no word on a price for consumers, but those willing to take a chance can reserve one now for $15 at the link below.

Hmmm.......This actually doesnt sound too bad.

Tegra Games now playable on non Tegra devices
Posted by Dan Mousavi On May - 24 - 2011ADD COMMENTS

There is a new tool out called Chainfire 3D, which is an intermediary OpenGL driver, that hooks into your rooted OpenGL ES 2.0 capable phone (pretty much every phone with over 1Ghz).
These drivers are much faster than the normal ones and make even Tegra 2 games playable on older devices.
Lars Hacker was kind enough to test this out for us and here is a video of him playing Samurai Vengeance II and Pinball HD on a Nexus One.

If you want to try them out yourself, you can find more information at the source at XDA

She should go to the store and check them out herself.  That phone might be too big
