At that point I wondered if the phone could support some kind of sandbox for untrusted apps. It could feature - restricted access to the phone network, e.g. only data transfers, no calls - restricted access to confidential data like address books - a kind of secure attention key to bring controll of the touchscreen back to a trusted application Of course, with a truly open architecture, it would somehow be possible to implement such features. But depending on the system libraries, it could be more or less difficult.
