read here : http://www.appleinsider.com/articles/09/07/29/sms_hack_could_leave_every_iphone_vulnerable.html

gotta love the headline of the article: "SMS hack could leave "every" iPhone vulnerable"

oh and heres the kicker, and i quote :

"Both of the experts reiterated that they notified Apple of the flaws roughly a month ago. In its typically silent approach to security, however, the company hasn't issued an update to patch either of the security breaches and hasn't provided an update on whether or not it can release a patch before the end of the month."

S$& device = $%· hacks = %&/ behavior

Yup this is a known hack via SMS, can pass viruses for Symbian... not any Virus for Winmo yet.

The iPhone hack can also effect users on the Palm Pre and Windows Mobile Phones.

According to the article, "Apparently Google Android, Windows Mobile phones, and Palm Pres are vulnerable to similar hacks. The team demonstrated the attack on an Android phone and a Windows Mobile phone".

I just hope there is a patch for winmo users. Most iPhone users won't know how to apply the patch or they will think their phone is broken and they will sell it on eBay for me to purchase and resell.

what is soo hard about plugging a phone into the PC and letting terrible, terrible software known as Itunes handle things?

Dont think it does affect winmo - they have created a fuzzing kit but didnt find any sms flaws (yet) and no mention of a fuzzing kit to find flaws on the pre.

It was demoed on iPhone and Android - no mention of windows mobile.
