I hate looking/feeling dumb, but I can't make heads or tails of the description of how to actually USE this new capability. I read the whole thing, and am baffled.
Anybody know? The Update All function in Preware says "This does nothing yet" and I see no evidence of an ability to handle keeping patches on the Pre whiel doing an update. What am I missing? Craig? Other smart people?

Not anymore, there is now "WebOS Internals Releases AUPT (Auto Update Patch Technology)" See: http://www.precentral.net/webos-internals-releases-aupt-auto-update-patch-te chnology If your patches confirm to AUPT then you do not have to remove them at the next OS upgrade.

There is a tool provided by the WebOS Internals guys called (appropriately) "Emergency Patch Removal tool" - it will get rid of all patches on the device. It's a bit of a pain to have to reapply them after the update, but I hear they're working on a way to help with that too... Thanks, Sam ------------------------------------ Yahoo!
