Yea I believe so, I haven't tried running apps that require root access without initially starting up SU.

Sorry, you have to start up SU and open up adfree every time the phone is rebooted.

Correction, after reboot adfree seems to still be active, without touching su or doing anything.

No, do not do that, this is specifically for the moto droid.

For those that want to take advantage of the rooted phone, this link has directions on how to stop amazon, the email program, corporate calendar, and visual voicemail from starting up with the phone. Be careful, its just dealing with terminal, but you can mess your phone up if you do it wrong. I am a noob to linux and rooting and i havent had any problems though.
