I disagree with the false positives statement, I run web and email hosting and cant recall seeing any false positives.
Agreed SPF does a better job at fighting fraud and viri, but it does have a go against spam. A very high amount of spam is from fake or randomly picked real domains, now when all these real domains publish SPF nobody can send spam form them anymore, combine this with checking for existent domains and the only option left is for the spammers to root servers as you said or buy their own domains. Buying their own domains can be sorted quite easily by black lists, as soon as the world and his wife starts receiving SPAM from a new domain it can be blacklisted, and in regards to rooted servers, sure this is a way to get past the SPF, but if people secure their servers/get themselves onto black lists we should be ok.
There is also Sender Policy Framework (http://spf.pobox.com/), this is very simular to SenderID but it has the majour advantage that its open source, agreed microsoft is trying to push SenderID down everybodys throats, I myself publish SPF on a number of domains and it does a good job.
The more people that use SPF the more power it will have over SenderID.
A very different idea, and im not saying its a great one that will work in all situations, is using mobile phone, e.g my college login was numberic, so i stored it as a phone number entry. The same can be done with passwords using the name, or saving text messages, perfect for on the move for those who dont have PDAs like me.
