David has an ATT Android phone. He's competent to make such a proclamation. Also, it has been widely reported in Engadget, Gizmodo, Ars Technica, blah, blah, blah. If you wanted a fact check, why didn't you Google for one? Relevant terms could be "ATT Android disable sideload" You would also find that there are several ways around, ranging in severity from "use the adb dev tool to load via USB" to "root your Android". -dsr- -- http://tao.merseine.nu/~dsr/eula.html is hereby incorporated by reference. You can't defend freedom by getting rid of it. _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list Discuss@blu.org http://lists.blu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
