The Droid X comes with a specifically signed bootloader so that you can't root/hack/modify your phone. Motorola did this for 'saftey purposes.'
Mike, assuming that you haven't gotten one, will this prevent you from getting the Droid X?

The device is a nice device without doing anything to it, but keep in mind anything created by man can be beaten by man..... I didnt plan on rooting my device anyway but my thought is that there are to many skilled programmers that exist in the Android world and I am sure if they want it unlocked bad enough I am sure they can accomplish it.. Dont write them of so soon, the device just came out...

have you watched mike's youtube videos Gerio? He now has an iphone and not the droid any more.
Hey Mike: Just so you know, the Iphone 4 signal issue is an intended feature of the phone. It's designed to help keep you from going over you minutes.......

Hey jokes on you, I don't have an iPhone 4 nor intend on purchasing one.
If you must know, I had to switch to the iPhone 3GS because AT&T's network had more coverage than Verizon's. I needed it for work, and I got a discount.
Thankfully enough I'll be getting a Droid as my friend will be getting the Droid X.
@GeriO I wouldn't buy any type of Android phone unless it had Stock UI on it.

To be quite honest I don't really care if you have a couple cans and string. It affects my Droid X experience none at all. Edit: Maybe a touch to harsh.

Then your initial post was really for no reason.
Aside from the obligatory "wut did u post 4 then," I'll have to say that I got an overall value of 0 reading your post(s).
Edit: VERY harsh, thanks.
actually you can still root just wont be able to load custom roms onto it. Do a little research before u start spreading rumors

Normally I would agree with you. Research is an excellent thing. However, I cannot finish reading your post. Every time I see "u" instead of "you" my brain drops the previous line(s) and I have to start over again...
Actually, its been rooted already.
{edit for TOS violation}
Yep, it's been rooted. Told you guys it would only be a matter of time.
lol...i thought they pulled the entire thread but i guess it's still here. when the forum was down last night, i assumed i was expelled for good.....lol
Yeah I rooted mine...takes 5 mins, literally.
Wow, the board police here are fierce man.
lol....yes they are. it's a great forum for standard stuff, but you have to go to the others for anything outside of the box.
