What is the merit of rooted device?
Is sound improved?

No, its not related to sound.
 
Rooting android is taking full control of your OS, so you can install anything, or even install other android versions (cyanogen, liquid motion...etc) for example.

Wondering if someone will rip out the music software and bundle it in a package to have it run on custom kitkat upgrade. Or even have it run on non-sony devices

So who has listened? Any early impressions?

haha that would be subjective, to me the AK still looks the sexiest and classiest.
the Sony just looks like a bulkier smart phone.

Or uninstall anything that's useless that may slow down the OS. I'm guessing that it won't be stock Android but at the same time can't imagine what Sony would be running on the ZX1. Maybe existing Z10x0 owners can tell what else runs on the OS? I know on the DX100, there were a few unused daemons one could freeze after rooting.
