Do not take the update and then try and sbf or you will have a permanent brick go to DROID life. Com and search for it they are reporting that the bootloader may have been updated as to circumvent tethering. Mostly likely this was Verizon putting the pressure on them to do something about it

If you need help PM me
I posted this @Rootz as that is where I'm usually at, but I'll post it here too:
If you are on stock/rooted or blur-based, do what it shows in this video NAO unless you want to run the risk of VZW updating your phone while your asleep and then losing the ability to SBF:
Check out my themes:
Simple Sideways - MIUI lockscreen
Simple Sideways Dark
Touch of Green - Vortex RC1
Christmas theme (in case you miss it) - Vortex RC1
If nothing else, you can go in and freeze the updater through tibonium (??). that will stop the update as well.
MIUI , Gummy ICS, YACK... and even AOKP! All through the magic of Boot Manager..
Droid X OTA Update (Build 4.5.621) Rolling Out Now, Brings Bug Fixes A-Plenty
Droid X users, Motorola and Verizon haven't forgotten about you; not completely, at least. You may not be getting Ice Cream Sandwich (officially, anyway), but Big Red is pushing one hell of a bug-fix update to your device right now.
The OTA update brings fixes to a whole slew of issues that DX users have been dealing with for far too long:
Over the Air UpdatesDevice Features
- Prevents lockups or resets after the Over the Air (OTA) update.
- OTA update notice screen displays the correct estimated update time.
Email, Messaging, & Data
- Improved browser security with the Google Security Patch from Android 2.3.6.
- Fixed issue where the device may power ON without user interaction.
- Resolved possible device resets while playing music.
- Adjusted camera settings will be saved, even after the device is powered down.
- Reduced Out of Memory errors.
- WAV files can be played from Visual Voice Mail.
- Device is enabled with the Wireless Alerting System.
- Improved stability of Music Player reduces resets.
- Shortcuts to applications remain on the device even after applications are moved to the SD card.
Accessories
- Improved connectivity with 3G Mobile Hotspot data connectivity.
- Addressed error that replicated thumbnails in message threads.
- Corrected errors where Yahoo! mail notifications were not displayed properly.
- Reduced duplicate message errors.
- Improved ability to access and receive Gmail when the Mobile Hotspot is turned on.
- Sorted contact groups.
- Device recognizes Multimedia ringtones after purchase.
Okay, so it's not be the major device overhaul that you may have been hoping for, but at least it'll make your device function better, and that's always a good thing.
- Button background lighting turns off while in the desktop cradle.
To pull the update manually, head into Settings and hit About phone > System Updates > Download. Otherwise, just hold tight and the update should hit your device soon enough.

Got update, and kept root with VooDoo OTA Root keeper. Just an FYI for those rooted without roms
I'm kind of wondering if we sbf to 602 and try to take the update to 605 will it skip 605 and put you at 621

Interesting thought. I usually just stay at 602 anyways and root and rom from there... but it's a good question.
