G2 doesn't have rootkit, it's just the same old NAND lock

This article made me wonder, are there any Android phones out there that are really open? Where you can easily install a new Android OS (or a different Linux if you so wish)? My girlfriend has a G2 and I really like it. I'd love to have something like that but only if I can meddle with the OS. One of my primary reasons is that I want to change the software on it.
Several of them can be made to be open with cyanogen. Sadly mine isnt on the list.
Sorry this might not answer your question. Call me paranoid, I didn't want to use Android as an entire spying OS.
I'm using the Nokia N900 with Maemo OS. You can install/dualboot an Android port called Nitdroid. I prefer Maemo which is basically Debian on ARM and I can do so much with it. You just need to add extra repositories. Here's my rambling post about the N900: http://lxer.com/module/forums/t/31118/
