I predict an Android phone announced by Nokia within the next 2 years. And I am looking forward to this phone.

I worked for gate5 (Now Nokia gate5 GmbH) in 1999 and it was surely a technology driven company in Berlin. Maybe most companies anywhere are not so much technical driven? The company I founded myself was only technical and that was the reas

Interesting how Mobile Computing was not in their radar in 2006. I wonder if it would be today.

I don't think so. The device token is even generated over the version of the app. Meaning: you get a new device token if the app version changes.

Point 1 and 2 have nothing to do with the App Store. Android does the same. 3 & 4 are not prohibited by the App Store review process. Of course, the iphone app can steal all kinds of information on your phone and send it to russian serv

No it doesn't. You have to register your phone as one of three with your developer program account which is 79$ per year. The difference to iOS is that your phone is then unlocked for every other developers app signature.

If it looks legitimately and works legitimately it will pass the App store review and steal your data on iOS too. This already happened. And it is impossible for the App store reviewers to find all apps that do this. Even if they had the so

Before the iPhone I was using the Sony Ericsson P800 and the Nokia Communicator E95. Both had big screens. The iPhone was not the first smart phone with a big screen.

Yes. Of course. And there have been or will be stolen laptops at this event. The "security system" is easy to circumvent, if you do a little planning and want to steal something. The stickers are removable and re-attachable. You can registe

He did not enter any personal information into the phone. We just used his SIM to activate a wiped phone.

It was freshly wiped before he inserted his SIM. He just used the SIM to activate it with iTunes.

Because I received messages that were not meant for me. I got this iPhone from someone who removed his SIM card from it. And then I received messages for him that should have been delivered to his phone (the phone he put his SIM-card in).

iMessage fails on the security front. I have received more than one message (via wifi) after I removed the SIM card from an iPhone. This would not have happened with SMS.

The protocol and several implementations (at least in C and in Java) are already there. It's called OTR (Off The Record) http://www.cypherpunks.ca/otr/ Not to confuse with a GTalk feature that has the same name.

How is iMessage better than GTalk on Android (except for the end to end encryption)? GTalk BTW. is a slighlty modified XMPP. It is not even incompatible with regular XMPP clients. It seems to have some additional features to save power by n

Maybe I am ignorant to the meaning of 1-1 meetings. Doesn't that mean that only two people meet in a room with no one else to listen in? Usually as a performance review? This does not cover regular team meetings with more that one member?
