There was a post in another thread about removing the card from the vox, mounting it under linux and copying su but I think most of us would prefer a less invasive method...

Read the entire thread. You will see that after the latest update, this method no longer works, and there is no easy method so far discovered to root the Vox. See post #65 in this thread.
