Just in case nobody's mentioned it yet in this thread, according to
Motorola, the eFuse thing does NOT brick the phone, instead it

Actually in the car analogy, you can't just mod it at will, the car
still has to be street legal. But my issue here is, can't you
essentially write an app that would overload the network? There
certainly may be legal issues with that (plus Apple would sue you for
violating their patents), but I'd

Bah, a smart-phone is just another physical device... not unlike a
car. The fact that phones rely on various network pipes to reach the
outside world, is irrelevant to the device itself. I realize that in
the US, the two concepts carrier and handset is chained together with

the sad truth is that most consumers won't know and/or care. But that's
fine, the geeks (like me!) will buy HTC instead and hopefully they will go
from strength to strength.
I really like that Moto has gotten behind and android, but this is worse
than anything Apple's done. I hope they sell lots o
Yeah it's ridiculous. Google trying to open up the cell phone marked
and then Moto pulls off a stunt like this... something you'd expect
more coming from Apple. I hope it will cause a backlash for Motorola,
what an arrogant move for a handset manufacturer that owes it's recent
success to Android.
