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
business or something that is mission critical.

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.

pregnancy, childbirth, two years of diapering, and that's just the
beginning. Tens of thousands of meals, thousands of bedtime stories,
years of school. Dozens of teachers ... A lot of people went into
making him."  (Boni [Lois McMaster Bujold, "Shards of Honor"])
