My 3gs is currently not working and while I wait for a new screen and flex cables to fix it, I am going to upgrade to this phone, IF it works as I think. I have heard the bloatware is awful and plentyful. I am planning on rooting this phone, Once I do that can this run clean android, not At&t's android plus extras? thanks again.

Rooting is easy, very easy even by Android standards. Then download Titanium backup and remove the bloat. And if you want, download the sql editor and change a file to allow off market apps. (sideloading).

As far as filtered AT&T apps on the market, two ways of dealing with this, both simple. 1. put the phone in airplane mode, then turn wifi on. You can get at any app in the marketplace. This is what I do. 2. Download marketenabler, pick TMO USA, the market will think you're on TMO and not AT&T, both are good. I use 1.
