		+	I'm afraid, OTA is not an option, as Palm's AppCatalog will not accept Preware as it does not "play with the rules" that reviewed apps have to follow. As I understand it, you won't get Preware without having installed the Doctor on your PC, which contains the Windows drivers you require. So if I were running Windows, I'd download the correct doctor from http://palm.com/rom and then use the standalone installer...

		+	Thanks for the quick reply Mephinet. I need to clarify. I am familiar with the PreWare App, I had it on my original Pre Plus, how it got there was just pure luck.
		+
		+	So my trepidation comes from my first experience of trying to load PreWare via quick installer. And well, I was hoping that this time around there might be any easier way. I guess I was hoping for an OTA solution, something as simple as downloading an App from the Palm App Catalog.
		+
		+	With that said, which method would you recommend to install PreWare on a new webos 2.0 device? (I am a windows user).
		+
		+	Thanks in advance for your support!

		+	Bjaret, don't worry, the Preware app won't do you any harm, as it's only the program used to install other apps - which might disturb you webos experience. Therefore, don't be afraid of installing Preware, but think twice when installing apps using preware afterwards. If you're on Windows or Mac, just use any of the installation methods, you don't need to be developer for that...

		+
		+	I am a regular Palm Pre user and all I want to do is install the preware application on my new Pre2. So through some searching and reading I found my way to the webos internals web site.
		+
		+	I have read through the documentation and to be frank, I do not want to develop apps or save the world, although that would be nice. With that said, after reading the documentation, fear of screwing up my device (and my computer) has started to creep into my head. Add that to an already obsessive compulsive personality, and well...you get the picture.
		+
		+	So here is my question. Is there an easy way for us regular pre2 users to load preware? While I want a seat on this great plane you have all built, I have no interest in piloting it!
		+
		+	Thanks in advance for your help?
