Is that policy or merely benign neglect? I keep seeing comments to the effect that a certain HTC model has been rooted, implying it's an accomplishment that was in doubt or at least troublesome. I feel obliged to support the vendor that openly decides to treat me like a tool-using human being pour encourager les autres.

For example, the Samsung Vibrant is trivial to root, and the SIM unlock code is stored unencrypted on the device itself. I'm still going to get a Nexus S, though; Google keeps their software more up-to-date.
