Root Can you root without a PC?

Your PC can assist you with moving needed files to your phone but as far as I know you cannot apply the actual update.zip directly through you PC without phone interaction. If you haven't already, check out:

It is easy enough the way it is.

Im reading that post now. But my main question is. I dont have access to a PC at work right now. I have spare time and i would like to do this with my phone. Is it possible to do a root without using a PC at all??
 
Oops, I read your post wrong and assumed (my bad) that you wanted to root just with a PC. You can download the needed files using your phones browser and issue the adb commands using a terminal emulator (make sure you have a terminal program loaded from the market) and use a program like Astro file manger to move the needed files to the root of your SD card. I would wait and do it with a PC available in case you run into problems.
