If 2.0 Eclair gets updated, you will most likely lose that capability and the exploit to Root would probably closed and that option would no longer exist... for a while at least. Eventually they (us Junkies) will probably find a way to backdoor it and get 2.0 while keeping the Root. If I'm relaying something different then what someone else has solid knowledge of, then please chime in, but from the research and what I have gained this would be the case. It's only getting better from here is the underlying message, lol.
Good Luck.
wish i could test to back you up on it hahaha but my htc droid eris will be coming on friday and ill already have 2.0 hahahahaha suckers.
