Total n00b question...

Hi All,
I am considering rooting my evo and have been looking around to try to find a comprehensive guide (I am thinking about 'toast') to rooting with zero assumptions... Are there any such guides or write ups?
XDA is pretty overwhelming right now, I am fairly savvy but am not good at filling in the gaps on my first time doing something.
Any help would be very much appreciated...

Follow Toast's. I did, and it worked well for me.

Thanks... Do you have a link? I have just read about the amazing battery life.

do you have the OTA update to 1.47 installed?

Software number is 1.47.651.1, I did update with the ota that bricked phones, after they pulled it and put it back... I am coming from blackberry where I was fairly good a tweaking the phone, however android is hard for me to get going on....
Thanks!!!!!!

The Simple Fast Root is much simpler. Only 4 clicks and you read what the screen says.

Yesterday, I was clueless about rooting.

Now, I'm installing ROMs without any problems.
