A great news for all Mini / Pro owners. Yesterday both the models were made rootable in xda-devlopers. There are two methods for rooting:
1) Method evolved by Kabaldan. I have used this method to root my mini successfully. Link below:

2) Method discovered by Bin4ry which presently has got some limitations regarding rooting all firmwares. But Bin4ry is confident of making it universal. Link below:

After rooting I installed Titanium backup (requires root permission) and could uninstall the crap system apps like roller coaster, edge etc (details here : http://forum.xda-developers.c[....]ost.php?p=7430706&postcount=22 ).

Please remember that rooting will / may void your warranty and / or brick your device if wrongly executed. Entire risk is with the user.

Thanks read, root and enjoy the mini / pro more.

In short rooting means breaking restrictions implemented by the OS in default and gaining more access to the phone's software. Google "Rooting android" you will get hundreds of explanation.
