Hi Tom. Thanks for the link and clarification. AFAIK, my iPhone is
"Jailbroken" because I'm using it on a Mexican carrier, TelCel and if
I understand correctly, it would have to be to use the TelCel chip.
Ziphone is a bit slow but I'm going to go through it and see if I can
find the reason why I'm not able to get a mountable device created.
Thanks again for your help,
