Good bless. Psiof is pumped on the streets of London just because they need money for acquisitions an stuff.
..as wireles internet company...
It could be a good call, to buy ...
Next Microsoft without bugs for hackers, etc.
But look Arm man, Psion's Epoc is ported in Arm but so are many other RTOS's and mobile linux.

Psion has mobile internet, but Arm got the same piece of cake and 2-3 other cakes added: GPS, car, security, and other automation, eduntainment boxes, MP3 players...modems,..you name it..

Summa summarum: Coolio - Msft hackers don't allowed here.

Microsoft goes on a bug hunt

In the past week, Microsoft security teams have found themselves facing a sudden flurry of problems
Since 16 February -- the day before it officially launched Windows 2000 -- Microsoft has issued five separate official security bulletins, with independent analysts delivering several more. To top it off, antivirus vendors last week announced the discovery of the first confirmed Windows-based Denial of Service (DoS) tool.
Perhaps the most dangerous of these issues, which was first announced by veteran bug-spotter Juan Cuartago, may present a threat to Internet Explorer (IE) and Outlook users. The problem lies in an ActiveX control called MS Active Setup, which can automatically install Microsoft-authenticated code onto a Windows-based machine. The install process can be triggered without any warning simply by visiting a Web page or viewing an email containing the code.

****However, according to the Microsoft Security Response Team, this automatic installation is a feature, rather than a bug.***** (got better joke anyone!)
