If any of you are following P3Droid on Twitter (and you should be) you may have noticed he’s been tweeting a lot about something he calls a “factory cable”. What exactly is it? From what I gather of his tweets, this special cable would connect to the device directly somewhere (I’m assuming the battery terminals?) as well as to the regular Micro USB B connection. This cable automagically puts the device into bootloader mode and allows for, wait for it, powering the device whilst flashing a ROM. This can be invaluable to the designated Android flash-a-holic in your family. I’ve already signed up to have my girlfriend buy me one for Christmas. He’s looking to get 100+ people interested to help drive costs down as (from what I understand) he and a friend will be making them by hand. This makes them both unique and useful. Costs are varying right now, but the goal is $20-$30. If you want to get in on the action, feel free to hit up P3Droid on his Twitter and let him know just how nerdy you are! Noobs need not apply.
