Between Apple's relentless software restriction's and their ever-increasing ideas on how to charge for things that should be free, it's not worth its own updates, which btw have a 1 in 7.5 chance of erasing your personal data :( Google should start a political party and run for President. I think it'd be fun. But for now, the G1 is awesome, and Google needs to continue putting more of their inovation into the cell market. <br><br>And for those naysayers, compare the few things/problems that will inevitably be found on the G1 with the mountain of flaws on the 1st gen iPhone, or even those of the "new" 3G version!!!! And then say something $&%$&!!! :) lol The iPhone is total crap.

All in all open source is pretty safe, I personally prefer this type openess and freedom. I don't want a company able to tell me what I can and cant run on my phone or computer. Look at the iPhone, you can't even have a video app, without jail breaking the phone. (this is not due to security, it's do to control, and ultimately more money) I would just prefer an open platform in the first place. If you want hand holding, and restrictions, stick to apple, if you want robust open platforms, where you get to choose what you want, an android OS phone is probably your best bet. To give you an example of how open source is stable and secure, take a look at OSX. This was based off of free BSD, which in turn came out of UNIX, Apple took the benefits of stability and security, and based it's OS on it.

He did not intend to imply that the software, in general, was vulnerable to attack, only those older versions which have since been patched. At least, that's how I interpreted it.

Why drive, fly planes, or use a computer then? Quit being so scared of technology. It's time to grow up and understand the benefits of moving forward, not remaining in the past.

Propriety software for inexperienced users. Everyone I know who has an iPhone and compares it to my G1 wants what I have. You just need to understand the difference between the two. That doesn't mean the iPhone's bad, just that Android based phones are better. To say that any device that uses the internet is secure is about as ignorant as it gets. There's no such thing. Get a clue. Google obviously knew about the flaw when they released. They're still in Beta version. Iphones are just going to be bricked when the new one is released.
