You actually don't jailbreak a Pre - it's already 'Jailbroken'. And the term 'Rooting' is tossed around incorrectly. The Pre already has the root user enabled from the factory. All you need to do is access it, palm even provides directions on their website. There is nothing to hack to gain access to the underlying Linux platform. Palm left it wide open, we like them for that :) I've installed a SSH server on the Pre, and have a client that runs on my desktop which pulls any new pictures from my Pre, and places them into my 'My Dropbox' folder, so I can access them from all 3 of my PCs.
Essentially, as soon as I take a picture on my Pre, it's on my 3 PCs. Pretty slick. I have nightly backups being taken of my entire 8GB internal memory too. Next, over the air Music Sync. (Preferably Wifi only :) I love this phone. -Sam ________________________________ From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Tony Cooke Sent: Thursday, August 27, 2009 1:59 PM To: [email protected]; [email protected] Subject: [Treo] Hack Your Palm Pre Alas, Palm was late in releasing its Mojo SDK to third-party developers. That worked for Apple, which had spent an entire year playing coy about native apps before launching the App Store. But it didn't work for Palm, who really needed to be competitive with Apple's App Store right out of the gate. Nonetheless, plenty of enterprising developers have figured out ways around the problem. Plus, they're not getting any resistance from the powers-that-be. Palm doesn't even mind if you install apps they don't distribute, a process known as 'jailbreaking,' , unlike that other touch screen cell phone company. That leaves the field wide open for some powerful hacks. If you're looking to get the most out of your Palm Pre, and don't mind getting your hands a little dirty in the process, try these out. http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2352009,00.asp <http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2352009,00.asp> -- Tony Cooke www.tonycooke.talktalk.net [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
