Virus developers are a good sign in a sense, shows that their user base is large enough to make it worthwhile.

Yeah you have a decent choice of android antivirus apps. Don't think it is necessary for me just yet.

The scary thing is that mobile viruses will probably have access to a lot more than they had access to on one's PC...
Location, phone number, credit card info, possibly even listening, or recording conversations, and the list can go on...

you make a good (and worrying) point

Another reason NOT to trust Symantec...

The apps in question are simply adware, much like your browser plugins that reset your homepage etc. Nothing damaging/to see here.

As with using a PC, a good mixture of caution and common sense is enough to keep you away from trouble.

I wouldn't doubt symantec did that on purchase to prompt panic buying of anti virus products. lol

On another note, a question for those following the droids for some time now.

From past experience....if a phone is being launched on February 4th 2012 on Verizon, how long would you expect before an unlocked version becomes available for sale?

Weeks? Or we talking months here?

Trying to decide whether to wait for the Droid 4 or get a lesser phone to tide me over till one is available for sale unlocked.

I would say months

From what i've noticed... as much as months.. 2-3 to be more exact... I STILL waiting on the nokia lumia 710 unlocked... and it out since nov technically, but only dec in the US...

That aside I got her a motorola backflip, nice lil phone, works well WHEN it behaving... annoying when not O_o but it seems to have settled down a bit. Running Cyanogen Mod7.1 on it atm.

I've never had much of an issue, 3-4 weeks bro.
I used to buy from this place in NY regularly.
If you want the price to go down you'll have to wait 3 months. but for 'unlocked' you cud pretty much get it the day of.

back to Mez, the day of? You fuh real? That place in NY has a website or something by chance?

@ wintry, that's what I was afraid of. Months. mcmcmc

@ Arc, I'm watching the HTC Desire Z as a soft interim unit.....if no sauce on the Droid 4 by end of the week, I'll pull the trigger on that.

Mez · « **Reply #633 on:** January 31, 2012, 03:05:07 PM »

Wyatt, they do but its not as updated as their regular stores. best bet is a friend in NY
