Yes the ace hack kit is the way to go, be sure to read all of the instructions. There is a irc so u can get help with rooting.

If you stay stock rooted you'll get the notification BUT it will fail to install.

Stock rooted is for example if you stay on your current rom(stock) but you have root capabilities.

Oh OK.but wat if I choose another rom? Can I still receive and install the OTA ICS rom???

Some roms do use an app to notify you of an update, but not all do. Usually they'll post in their threads of an update and you can download it and install it.
But if your asking specifically for the ics update that HTC release you can flash the ruu when it becomes available (but you'll lose root access )or you can flash a custom rom that is based on it.
You won't be able to say be on cm and then install the HTC ota.

I'm pretty sure a HTC desire is somewhere on the list, and an sd card (1gb ex3/4 partition useful),
