Current updates don't wipe out the user apps and data but there is no telling about the 2.2 update. Especially since enabling apps to be installed on the SD card is supposed to be a feature; even if it doesn't force a full "factory reset", you might *want* to do one at that point.
My suggestion would be install the Dec 10 update (if it isn't already installed) and "play" with it a few days testing software to see what you like. Once you settle on a set of apps then you can build up your "production" installation, with or without root as you see fit.
By the time you finish testing the update may be out (if they do meet the January release timeframe). Just don't assume they will. Software coding is not a predictable activity.
