Alright, so I finally get a new phone through my company cell line..... I'm getting a Verizon Droid CHARGE. I'm gonna be rooting my phone for the first time, and I've seen many different rooting ways (well most likely the same process, but different download site). My question is this; Is one root better than another? For instance would 1 root be much glitchier than another (loader load time, startup time, other variables I'm not thinking of?) or since they all do the same thing the end result will be the same? Also is it possible that any of the downloads (that go straight to the phone) are infected with a virus or keylogger, or history tracker, anything of that nature? I think Androids use Linux or whatever, which is suppose to be harder to do that in.. but I really don't know enough about them to make that judgement call, help?

Answers to either of my questions would be wonderful ^Q^ Thanks!

rooting and jailbreaking are pretty much the same thing :/

xda-developers.com is the main site for this stuff i think.
