Diligent Android-tamperers have done it again—the Droid has been rooted. There aren't many practical benefits quite yet, and many apps won't work on rooted handsets, but it's a first step to all kinds of custom Droid goodness (http://gizmodo.com/5341915/android-hacking-for-the-masses).
At the moment, the only real benefit to rooting is the ability to get the Android 2.0.1 upgrade right away, and that probably won't be enough to offset the effort of rooting and the resulting incompatibility of apps for most people. But anyone who's played around with Cyanogen's (http://gizmodo.com/tag/cyanogen/) custom Android builds is cheering: This means a lot of great customizations are coming soon.
