This should give you an idea of the process (out of my head, I may have made a slight mistake here or there).
At your own risk (may brick your device) :

Code:
$ wget https://f-droid.org/repo/com.koushikdutta.superuser_1030.apk
$ unzip com.koushikdutta.superuser_1030.apk assets/armeabi/su
$ adb remount
$ adb install com.koushikdutta.superuser_1030.apk
$ adb push assets/armeabi/su /system/xbin/su.koushikdutta
$ rm -rf assets/
$ adb root ; adb shell

# cd /system/xbin
# chmod 6755 su.koushikdutta
# mv su su.orig
# cp -a su.koushikdutta su
# cd ../bin
# mv su su.orig
# ln -s ../xbin/su su
Alternatively, there is a root kit floating around on one of the German fora, which may be more suited to point-and-click Windows users.

You will need to repeat this procedure after installing a firmware update (a little script may prove its worth here).
