What product is @stake selling?  Although they mention some other products
to secure your Palm, I thought @stake was independent and only "sells" their
security consulting services, which they don't plug in their advisories.

"With @Stake's pledge not to market any specific security product, take
kickbacks from vendors or interfere with LOpht's continued posting of
security flaws, LOpht will be able to remain the hacker's Consumer Reports,

Take a look at http:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/company_info/ethics.html.  Even though
many people on this *development* list know about the lack of security on a
PDA, I agree with their statement that most users don't realize their
private data is unsecured.  That is why they:  "Issue public statements,
advisories, and the like only in an objective, fact-based and truthful
manner..."
