Obviously you got the G1 on a carrier contract. This means you've paid perhaps $179 and committed to, say, a two year data/voice plan, use it or not. And after the two years are up, you're free to do with the G1 whatever you want, because your carrier offers you a new device on a renewed contract.
Now... let's go back to the word "after". You committed to a two year contract, right? You will be charged a monthly fee, use it or not. In a sense, assuming the G1 costs more on the open market, all the carrier is doing here is giving you a credit. Still, *from day one*, you own the phone, and you can use the device in which way ever you please, including rooting.
