Well they’ve done it again, there is now a way to install/run homebrew apps on your Palm Pre without having to hack the phone at all. All you have to do is email yourself a file (has to be packaged a certain way) and click on the file in the email and that’s it. The [...]

Thursday, June 18, 2009
It was only a matter of time before you’d be able to control your computer through your Palm Pre, but don’t get too excited yet it’s still going to take a little bit of time to get it working correctly. For now the only thing you can do is view your computer through the Pre, [...]

Sunday, June 14, 2009
We know it’s possible to run Doom on the Pre so obviously the next step was getting an NES emulator to run in webOS.

Wednesday, June 10, 2009
It looks like something called webOS Reset Doctor leaked yesterday and apparently it included a ~200mb root image of webOS itself! The Reset Doctor is used to reset Palm Pre phones that have messed up operating systems in one way or another, but who cares about that, the real gem here is the root image [...]

Wednesday, June 10, 2009
Obviously the site is pretty new and looks extremely generic, but don’t worry I will be working on it over the next few days. I wanted to get it up and running because it seems like things are starting to happen in the homebrew/hacking scene and I don’t want to fall behind on news. So [...]
