I guess these kind of bugs can be allowed for newcomers onto the the phone circuit, although Apple is now at vrsion 2.1 and still their bug isn't fixed....

It turns out the bug in Android I wrote about yesterday was worse than we thought. When the phone booted it started up a command shell as root and sent every keystroke you ever typed on the keyboard from then on to that shell. Thus every word you typed, in addition to going to the foreground application would be silently and invisibly interpreted as a command and executed with superuser privileges. Wow!

Apple iPhone
This is quite an old one stemming back to iPhone 1 but still exists and reported recently (as something new!)

iPhone users expecting their Passcode Lock to prevent thieves running up their bill will be disappointed, as it emerges that the "Emergency Call" button actually allows any number to be dialled.
