    Well as far as I can tell, This whole process of Itunel and WINscp is useful, but the 3.0 version with Itunes 8.2 disable the ssh via usb. There’s a way to make it work, but its way easier if you download DiskAid 3.0 and just install it, connect Iphone or ipod touch, any version, including 3.0, and will be that fast.

    I searched for hours to find a way to ssh my iPhone. I had winscp downloaded and no one told me how to use it. This worked in SECONDS. Thank you.
