I can answer the latter part of your post now.

Rooting is simple, download Modaco's "Visionary R14" app, open it, tap "temp root now" then wait, then when done tap "perma root now" and wait... job done.

Then you are able to install the only official current custom rom which will be modaco, there are other roms for other tablets you can use but I have not really researched this myself yet.

Plus CM 6.x followed by CM 7.x is in the works.

Retired: Samsung Galaxy Note II Samsung Galaxy S III, Advent Vega (Tablet), Samsung Galaxy S II, Samsung Galaxy S, HTC Desire Z, HTC Desire HD, HTC Desire, HTC Hero

yes that can be removed.

We will get CM6 first I believe, there is currently one majorish stumbling block stopping CM7 from working but hopefully that won't take forever to fix.

no its not already rooted, there is just very little to no security stopping you root though.

I didn't have to perform any rooting steps with mine, just installed the ROM using Paul's batch files and instructions.
HTC One (T-Mob) Unlocked but can't enter recovery
