I got burned once with a windows phone Omnia 7 as an early adopter and it was beyond useless (lack of apps/configurability) so I will definitely not rush again on unproven phones despite my interest in Ubuntu. Also the price/specs

Notorious ? Known ? Do you have any references (if possible from other sources than US gov. agencies) to back those words ? Did anyone come forward with some concrete proof/source code? I'm really curious.
