Fact is, it was an iPad users problem and iPads are only on ATT..it didn't happen to all their phones on the network, just the iPad. Right, I forgot, bad code on MS means incompetence, bad code and security fixes on Apple is a feature. On Mon, Jun 14, 2010 at 6:14 PM, tjpa t...@tjpa.com wrote:

Exactly my point. The ATT servers have a problem and you make a bizarre twist of logic to somehow try to tar Apple with the ATT problem. I read the hacker blog post about iPad Safari. It demonstrates that the hacker has no idea about the structure of iOS. He thinks he is attacking Windows.
