"You don’t have to jailbreak or root your device. What other platforms call jailbreaking or rooting, we call entering developer mode."

Having had a Pre since the day Sprint launched it in 2009, it's truly a hackerphone for those that want to customize their experience, and one of the primary reasons I've evangelized the platform and my experience developing for and tinkering with it to all the developer friends of mine that'd listen.

They got it right from the start. No bootloader crap or jailbreaking necessary. Preware from webOS Internals is just icing on the cake.

And all user-made the patches available make the phone so much better
