I've asked this too and like you was still a little confused. Hope someone can shed an authoritative light on this.

You will get the OTA updates if you have the stock recovery installed as well as the stock rom.

When I first rooted to debrand from Vodafone to generic UK, I wasn't getting the OTA update for 1.50.401.1 when it was available, and it was because I still had clockworkmod recovery installed.

I flashed the original recovery, and the OTA update suddenly appeared.

I still had S-OFF.

Sorry, I'm a n00b...so S-off is okay but don't root yet?

I think both S-OFF and root are okay as long as you are on stock rom and stock recovery.

Definately S-OFF because I always have been since I debranded and have received 2 OTAs since then. I *think* I've been rooted too, but not 100% sure about that.
