Droid Rooting

[Squiggy]

For those of you who have a Motorola Droid. Have you rooted it? What sorts of nifty things have you gotten out of it?

I'm a newb at the process and I'm just in the final stages of getting the look how I want. I'm wondering about overclocking and things of that nature.

Discuss.

I have a N1 not a Droid but... if you're still running stock 2.1, you can try swapping the OS to one of the leaked Froyo builds for the Droid. You can also swap it out for Cyanogen 5.0.8 (based on Android 2.1) or Cyanogen 6 RC1 (based on Froyo). If you grab Titanium Backup off the market, you can backup all your apps without having to redownload them after a wipe/reinstall.

Hell, I thought this thread was going to be about Australians having sex with robots.

I'm running the Sapphire rom now for 2.2. No problems so far. I've also customized the status bar (black with color icons), the lock screen clock font, and the boot screen. Might seem like small potatoes but just those few things make it seem like it's my phone as compared to a phone I'm borrowing from Verizon.
