  This root is actually very easy. It's as simple as downloading an app and running it. First off you want to allow non-market sources.
  1. Tap on Settings
  2. Tap on Applications
  3. Allow Unkown sources

  Now download the apk file. This can be downloaded here. Click Install.

  When you open the app it should look like this.

  If you are on Android 2.0 or 2.2 then you can leave it on the default. Make sure you keep Soft Root uncheck because it will be unrooted when you turn it back on. Generate log is up to you, but can be used if you get errors. You will be able to see were it failed and then google for help. After that your ready to go root! Simply tap it and be done!

  As you can see if you are on Android 1.5 or 1.6 you should select that, then follow the same procedure. You don't want to check Do not install Superuser because it would defeat the purpose of this app.

  If it worked then you should see an app called Superuser Permissions. It may have a different icon however.
