I don't know about my Droid brethren, but I'm pretty excited to see the new series of Android ROMs for the Droid phone that are based on a stock Android 2.1. As most of us know, the existing 2.1 ROMs can be buggy as hell and either running vanilla 2.1 or a custom ROM; but this phone is still a tinkerer's best friend."

Nandroid full backup of your stock 2.0.1 install. That is all you need. Something isn't working, just flash back to that and it will even rewrite your recovery image if you want it to. Verizon will never know.
