Who should use this guide?
You should use this guide only if you say yes to each of these questions:
1.: Do you have a jailbroken (if you don't know what jailbroken means, you are not jailbroken ;)) iPod Touch/iPhone running firmware 2.0 or higher?
A: Yes
B: No

2.: Do you have a Windows computer (Windows XP or later) with at least 1 USB (2.0 or better) port (this is optional, unless you can't connect to a WiFi network on your iDevice)?
A: Yes
B: No

3.: Do you consider yourself a novice when it comes to jailbroken iDevices(if you are not a novice and you read this guide, you will get really annoyed, really fast;))?
A: Yes
B: No


Why would I want to SSH?
-To add themes to your device
-To add cracked apps to your device
-To do and add a lot of other stuff I can't think of right now



Is it worth the time and effort?
It depends on what you're doing, but you will think it is sooo cool when you're staring at your iDevice's file system on your computer, with no cords.

*If you cannot connect to a WiFi network on your iDevice, you will need an iDevice sync cable and a USB (2.0 or better) port on your computer

You can create an ad-hoc network between your computer and your phone and SSH without the need for an external WiFi source.
