Still on 2.1 with 2.2 ROM...Good Idea?

[Madirish76]

Is there any good reason i should stay on 2.1? It seems any and all work on the bootloader is dead and that there is no reason for me to still be on 2.1 with a 2.2 ROM...I might as well update to 2.2, root it, and go from there...any reason not to?

Thanks

There really isn't any good reason to stay on 2.1 any more. There will likely be no more development for 2.1 (all the ROMs are based off 2.2), so you might end up being left behind if you stick to 2.1. I say load on ROM Manager, install the leaked 2.2, update to 2.3.15 through TBH, and find a good ROM. I would still avoid the OTA like the plague.
