Thanks Paul for that

Looks like it's just the latest iPhone though


Dam I'm on mine now

My last bill was ment to be 130

Dunno which model it is James....I don't have one...just thought it was worth letting people know...Hackers will have a go at anything...

The software update to fix this problem was releasd yesterday so there's nothing to worry about

Thing is the more they fix it...the more determined Hackers are to get round it...we don't hear about stuff like that has been going on for a while....

It's all iPhones (I think) and the fix is to apply the 3.01 software update which came out about a week ago.

This is old news. Its also more in america.

Wonder if being jailbroken prevents it?

Downloaded the navigon app the other day (sat nav) which is pretty cool!

I tried it and wasn't that impressed. CoPilot Live came out a few days ago and that has been getting good reviews. I'd like TomTom but there is talk of it being £113. Stuff that.

I didnt pay for navigon mate

Will wait for the others to get broken!

What you moaning about then

fair point, well made

Personally I wouldnt worry about it.

If you look at all new S60 5th edition phones its exactly the same, As phones now have better software than they used to, virus problems are just the same as on PC's so theres nothing you can do. This is just the start of things to come (look how many PC virus definitions their are)

Is exactly the same if youve got a windows mobile or any other phone that has a hard-drive and good software.

If you really want to protect yourself then you need to download some form of anti-virus software just as you would for your PC.

You can get Kaspersky Mobile Security, Symantec etc, for Windows and Symbian Phones though to be 100% honest, not sure what options there are for Iphones as im not silly enough to have one haha

On a serious note, I know Mcafee was making one for the iphone though whether its out or not Im not sure

Yeh.... heres a pointer.......

Dont lol

Only messing, each to their own and all that, though what do you mean things to look out for? You getting a secondhand one?

Depends what your after from a phone, my opinion has always been that the iphones have good flashy software but not so good hardware. Where as Nokias have good hardware but as standard, rubbish software.

If you know how to set up your phone yourself with 3rd party apps, signing etc, then hardware is def what you want as you can upgrade the software.

like you say silverback its all down to taste,
the giant leap that was made when iphone came out has largely been forgotten now as others have tried to catch up. for me it is the perfect phone now since the text/picture forwarding has been sorted out.to be honest we have 3 in our household and personally i cant think of 1 thing that lets the phone down now, although i appreciate that others may have different needs, great bit of kit.

Jailbroken iphone > all!

If you jailbreak it its ok.... but only ok still lol

Though your right daz its all personal taste and ive always been a Nokia person

Camera? lol

Owned it nearly a year and never wished it had a better camera. Ive owned 5mp camera phones and they have nothing on true digital cameras!

The photos are more than acceptable for a phone!

I quite like them, I have an iPod touch, but they're far too delicate for work.

I've got a Blackberry Curve 8900 in an Otterbox as it handles email better but the navigation around an iPhone is a bit smoother.
