no you dont need to buy a flashable usb board, xzibit. maximmus, it doesnt matter what directory you put it in, it will be found. @whoever was asking about logans tool on your n900: i doubt it, unless anyone can be bothered porting an exe file to a .deb package, which i find very unlikly. and i doubt anyone is going to bother coding something similar considering the n900 is such a low-demand product.
