Part II http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=5397 Here's another moral dilemma that I'd like to throw into the debate. I posted the "The Orange SPV Smartphone Lock Down" article in December last year and it explained why and how the Orange SPV Smartphone is locked in the sense that users can't install "unsigned" applications to it. In the public Smartphone developer newsgroup discussions surrounding this issue seem to be endless. But go and check out the post "We have disabled driver signing requirement" that might turn things around and perhaps even lead to legal ramifications. I must admit that I would love to see "open" Smartphones, but following these steps obviously risks breaking the phone. Question: for those daring out there I wonder if it is morally or legally ok to break the way the phone is supposed to work?
