Thanks Zartemis. Your posts are extremely detailed and to the point. For me I can clearly see the differences between the two approaches.

Clockwork I believe would appeal to those who like to play around with lots of different setups and experiment, which I think is great. If it doesn't work out just return to your previous save quickly. However it does seem to require a bit of work, regular backups.

I'm looking for a bit more stable setup. If B&N had opened the app market I wouldn't even be interested in rooting. So I'm waiting for them to do their big firmware upgrade, hopefully in the next two months. Then I will do whatever autonooter there is and be done with it for a while.

Thanks again for clearing things up for a lot of us.

Seth
