DeskFlag was created after the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, and is dedicated to the memory of the victims. We hope that in some small way, using this program helps people demonstrate their condemnation of this senseless act.

I can't this isn't the first time they have done this sort of thing, when you consider auto update slipping in a WGA update in as a critical update. Trustworthy computing, I think not.

It is already financially damaging to the hip pocket even before you even consider this. iPhone has just been released (or at least notified) in the UK and much the same it is only available from supplier (Carphone Warehouse) and with only one network.

The cost about £250 but here is the rub, Apple will get a percentage of the revenue from the calls during the longer contract term, this will no doubt be seen in higher than normal tarrifs/call charges. Thanks but no thanks.
