The iPocalypse is upon us
A security flaw in Apple Inc's iPhone allows unauthorized users to gain easy access to private contacts and e-mails even when the device is locked, but the company said a fix is on the way.That's great customer service for you. Apple will sell you a product that is virtually useless in its first few days, and then over a month later, they'll inform you that none of your data is safe on the device. Were they so desperate to try to take away market share from RIM, the maker of the BlackBerry, that they put a product out there that wasn't ready for prime-time?
Popular technology blog Gizmodo and an online forum run by the Mac Rumors site showed that it took only three taps to gain access to locked iPhones, which run the latest 2.02 iPhone software.
Don't worry iPhone users, a fix is coming. It just might be after your personal information is stolen. Beware the iPocalypse.
And yes, this blogger owns a BlackBerry Curve.
