Apple iPhone 3G Kill Switch



"This Is So Going In My Blog"


Any of u guys have iPhones? Have any of u ever experience any problems with your phones due to applications? Me and a few friends of mine have certainly had out fair share of these problems. Hehehe. Ad trust me, it's a scary thing when ur iPhone stars acting up. I froze the first time it happened! Luckily, Apple is releasing a new feature to help prevent this from happening.

Apple CEO, Steve Jobs has just recently announced that while the new iPhone will be loaded with cool new features, it also comes with a feature that can help protect the phone from being harmed by 3rd party applications. Apple has called this feature, "The Kill Switch."

"The Kill Switch" is there just in case Apple inadvertently allows a malicious 3rd party app! This feature sounds really cool to me! Ive been worrying about harmful application from the first day I got my iPhone! Apple is trying to preotect its customers from harmful apps such as apps that steal a user's personal data.

Jobs was quoted saying, "Hopefully we never have to pull that lever, but we would be irresponsible not to have a lever like that to pull."

And the switch hasn't been used yet. Phew!!

What do you guys think? COMMENT!!

They just don't make them phones like they used to. Anyhow, it's not the iphones fault if it can't handle 100+applications. Oh, does it still call people?
