So I'm dropping my beloved iPhone for an android.
I ended up getting the LG Optimus Elite which comes with firmware 2.x
I'm told that I was to "root" my phone and load a 4.x ROM on it, so that is my goal.
As for the reason why I dropped my iphone, ATT was charging my way to much for what I need my phone for. I switched to virgin mobile and will only pay $35 a month vs the $99 I was paying to ATT.
So I have a good tutorial on rooting my phone here

Now I just need to find an updated ROM..
Any android users with rooting experience out there?
