The Smart M:Panel software records usage of various mobile phone features - email, web browsing, games, etc. - and securely returns the data to M:Metrics without interfering with the normal use of your phone. The application has no user interface... it's truly 'install and forget'!

the whole thing sounded great until i read that and it hit me and i realized that the program is pretty much keeping logs of what i do. honestly, i wouldnt recommend this if you had any sort of confidential data on your phone or if you were concerned about privacy.

the whole things seems fishy to me 8O

Good point. It's not looking at your data. It's looking at the features that you use. Microsoft (and others) pay to have studies done on how people use devices. They want to know if people actually use feature x or y, or if they should move a program from here to there. You would be shocked to see the extent of the studies they do. This is just another way for them to capture that data. They're just looking to see what features you take advantage of and not what you do with them. ;)

I have to agree. I have seen this thing before. The devil is in the details. :twisted:

I should have known that you wouldn't trust it. Jerry needs his tin foil hat before he goes out doors. :lol: ;)

Nah, it's harmless. If Paul from MoDaCo is behind it, then I'm pretty sure it's not a scam. :wink:

[Jerry Raia]

Not so much that I think it's a scam, it's just a lot of sharing. A little tin foil can be a good thing! :P

...A little tin foil can be a good thing! :P

yep, if it wasnt for foil then baked potatoes wouldnt taste as great :)
