Blackberry outages either on Verizon or others has become way to often. This is one reason I dumped my Tour for a Droid. The only app that I had to Superuser my phone for was Wireless Tether. However, wireless tether is still not working correctly on some Droids and only gets 20K up/down.
In the end many who buy a Android phones will modify them. If not already Rooted it will be soon and result in new ROM's.
