You are screwed until someone finds a root exploit for 2.2

I know how you feel.. Thankfully I got lucky in that my screen started coming up in the corners like adhesive wasn't working -- and when they swapped me out with another new unit (had been 10 out of 30 days) it had 2.1

My evo replacement came with 2.1 but when I rooted my phone, my nandroid would not restore.

I tried to format my sdcard but to no avail so I just did the OTA. Waiting on root just like you, brother.

I just got my replacement yesterday. I had waited 19 days! I booted up the phone in the sprint store, took a peak in software, and saw "2.1 update 1". I smiled and said "Thank you, sir".

Two things you can do:

1) Start another thread asking if you can root 2.2. Those are SO in right now. Don't bother searching first, you'll just get confused by all the results.

2) Start another BOUNTY thread offering money you never intend to pay to the first dev who roots 2.2 for you.

That seems to be the route people are taking these days.
