You can do is wipe you phone and reformat your old SD card toas delete private data. As far as swaping out, no. You can do that online or even over the phone. If the tech sees that it's rooted, they may red flag it as being rooted and void the warranty. Besides I'm sure you friend would love to have a rooted Evo.

I would make a nandroid of the current setup and flash either a rooted stock ROM or at least a Sense based ROM like Sprint Lovers or Calkulin's EViO 2 ROM so you can go into the setup. Then you can flash back to CM7 or let your friend decide.
