well, let's say we disagree in the classification of the om -- i think it's a very powerfull mobile computer and thus should follow basically the same idea of security. the user's data can be backed up and thus restored if compromised or destroyed. the system itself may causes severe loss of money if compromised: sending sms, calling those value-added numbers (what's the proper term in english?), creating internet connections (and maybe sending spam). accessing your pc if you connect to it to sync or so may corrupt your computer (take a known vulnerabilty, create an exploit and put it on the om -- if connected to your pc it could infiltrate).
imho the om does not match the criteria of "mobile world" you're applying -- but that's just it: my opinion. maybe it changes once i get my paws on a real freerunner ;-) _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
