Android phones are fairly easy to root kit. Just be aware that a Samsung update if installed after you root kit may make the phone unusable. I had a friend that rooted his HTC Sprint phone and had a brick after the HTC update was installed.

As Sparky said detailed instructions are available on YouTube.

Rick most people root kit Android phones to use a function that is either not available on the model or a function that you have to pay for from the provider like making the phone into a wifi hotspot for example. Or they want to install a different Android OS.

Why do you want to root kit your phone? You want to change the Android OS?

AT&T will only let me update my OS to Gingerbread (Which i have now). Wont get the Jellybean until 12/13 unless i just get a new samsung. If i root i can get the JB OS. Also i can use my phone as a wifi hotspot for my ipad.

Here is a link that should be helpful. You need to download the program and run it while your phone is in debugging mode. The program will root kit the phone for you.
