Perhaps Symantec are flagging it as malware because it is using permissions that the app clearly does not need, and it is just some rookie developer that has permission code copied in from some other site?

Since this article is about iiNet and people have been talking about SOPA, I thought it a good idea to post this article published on the official iiNet blog yesterday about SOPA: http://blog.iinet.net.au/sopa-internet-censorship-effort-beginning/

I agree with your notion for Wave - put out too early, cancelled way too early.

Australia is one of the least densely populated countries in the world, so the rollout of a network like this is nothing trivial. Europe is a different story..

Android's browser isn't "Chrome" per se, and is tracked by it's own user agent. So no figures in the wild should be counting it toward Chrome's market share.

Yep. iiNet have been running a fairly extensive "The New No2" (ISP) after a series of recent acquisitions, although this reflects only DSL subscribers, so my comment was in relation to people that might dispute OP's post which stated that Optus was the #2 largest ISP.

Just before someone chimes in with this, iiNet is the 2nd largest ISP in terms of Broadband DSL subscribers - Optus would have more combined subscribers with DSL/Cable/other (which is what OP would be referring to).

Sony received a lot of flak for their Xperia X10 Android devices - with a poor Android release upgrade cycle (very slow updates and stopping updates after Android 2.1), unfriendly attitude to devs, etc. But they've done a complete 180 recently; they reversed the decision of the Xperia X10 phones only getting Android 2.1 and said they'd release Gingerbread on them, as well as unveil the bootloader/unlocking website.

Side Note: I'm currently testing the Xperia PLAY out as a sort-of competition for SE, and the UI is very smooth and responsive. I only used it a few times, but I heard the Xperia X10 (+Mini and Pro) had quite laggy UI, the PLAY and also presumably the Arc are a different story. These are phones that I would recommend to friends now (currently suggest they only purchase HTC handsets and will advise against Motorola / Lagblur). So I just wanted to put it out there that they're changing gears and learning from their mistakes, and they deserve a pat on the back for it.

They *forgot* to read the terms and conditions..

Mod parent up; the most he replies to leaves all of these points out.
