Rooting XYBoard (MZ609) on Jellybean - Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've got a Verizon XYBoard MZ609 that is updated with JellyBean and I've searched relentlessly for a way to root this thing.
I see the older posts on how to do it with Honeycomb and Ice Cream Sandwich but nothing for JB.
I'm looking for advice from anyone that might have figured out a workaround to this.
Thanks in advance.

Nexus S still not updating to JB

I live in Australia, and earlier in the year I purchased an unlocked i9203 Nexus S through eBay with stock Ice Cream Sandwich. After trying and trying to get the recently released Jelly Bean OTA update using the Google Framework trick and countless other suggestions (removing the sim, airplane mode, etc.), there is still no update showing up. Is this because of my carrier (Telstra)? Or is there something I'm doing wrong? Help is greatly appreciated, thanks.
(sorry, i'm quite a noob, and don't know much)

Rooting with stock ICS

With the recent release of Jelly Bean, I've been giving some thought on rooting. I grew old waiting on T-Mobile's Ice Cream Sandwich release and am afraid my device will never see Google's new update. My device is the HTC Sensation 4G running stock ICS 4.0.3 and was wondering if current methods of rooting would work on my device. Thank you.

I am also hunting for a technique for rooting xyboard mz617 devices (I've got 10 of them I want to update to the latest they will support and they are stuck on Android 4.0.4).
Please update if you come across a good set of instructions / tools.
