Why? So you can get a virus or propagate a worm on your cellphone. No
thanks. MS's POS OS's don't belong anywhere near something I use for

That is funny; MS operating systems run more mission critical apps than any
other. Im guessing since you dont like MS systems you dont use a credit
card or drive a car either. I think Verizon uses MS too, so how do you make
a call on that bullet proof phone?
Your comment makes as makes no sense.

They have a PocketPC phone now. Though I think the PalmOS is better.
