So we're now doing what every single phone does when they ship!
AND - We were curious how long it would take you fellas to break back in... I think I won; someone owes me a quarter.

No phone ships with a password for adb. As a developer who makes a livable income off apps, I don't give a rat's butt if a device ships rooted or not. Since your device lacks the market apis, the only option for copy protection is either forward locking (which we know is a complete failure, and google has depreciated it and no longer recommends it) or another method like a secondary license server (which I know can work) which would work rooted or not.
I can provide some payment option recommendations if your interested, and willing to open your app "store" to them. I am coding up some stuff with the paypal API, waiting for my tablets to arrive.
