I've been using this process for a while now, once I found out about it, and it is absolutely fabulous. Also for those of you who like the *nix command line, instead of using WinSCP, you can use PuTTY to "ssh" into your phone. Now I can do stuff **cough** at work where we are, oddly enough, NOT allowed to set up our own private network.:-)

And it's fast, too. Makes modding, moving files, etc, really easy and smooth.

Thanks for the great tip!!!!
