===== iPhone syncing on Linux =====

Linux-Syncing support will come soon!!!

  * The iPhone uses a custom USB communications protocol, connection-oriented, which is totally different from standard mass storage devices
It provides multiple services over this protocol, and many have to be interacted with to complete sync
  * iPhone OS 2.x brought us a new hash (designed to lock users into iTunes) that so far had not been reverse engineered
  * iPhone OS 3.x brought us a new SQLite-based database format which, although a lot more Linux-friendly than the old proprietary format, does require a bunch of new code (and the old format still needs to be supported for compatibility).
