Has anyone tried to overclock it yet?
Yes I did. I'm not sure which one came with your phone but I got mine on launch day and was given an 8 gig scandisc I believe. If you run into a problem just follow these steps, worked like a charm for me afterwards.
1. Load up the fastboot menu by holding down power and the optical trackpad.
2. Plug in the USB cable
3. Press power again to select fastboot.
4. Click the SD card out, highlight recovery, and then press power to select recovery.
5. As the first white HTC screen is loading, you will hear a "detach" sound if you are on a windows computer. Immediately click the SD card in at this time.
6. Try to get into shell.
7. If you did not get into recovery, reboot into the OS by holding down power and volume up and clicking power again. Do a battery pull and repeat steps 1-6.
I am very much on the fence about rooting my phone. I want to do it but I don't want to brick my baby. Have there been any reports of anyone bricking their Inc doing this procedure?
I rooted last night using the SD card trick with popping it out and back in. Took a few tries but finally got it to work fine. So far I've tethered with it and added LauncherPro. I also added Fancy Widget so I could get the HTC clock back. SuperUser FTW.
LauncherPro worked for me without being rooted not sure why you had a problem. I'm going to have to try the sdcard trick later tonight. I tried the 10 minute video last nigth with 3 different card and it was a no go. I know there not much to do as of right now with root but it has become a challenge that I have to win.

Anyone try some of those autorun programs that prevent programs from running when you start the phone? I know those require root, and that's what I'd really like to rock!
