It can write but forces html onto users, which potentially includes jpg |
| 9 |
exploits, png exploits, html exploits, script exploits, font exploits... |

And before you say anything. For what benefit, annoying ads from |
| 12 |
paypal. I am quite capable of opening a browser and deciding which |
| 13 |

Google's network fell into this trap and banned Windows, but did they |
| 16 |

Would be even worse on Iphones where webkit is forced and so as old as |
| 20 |
the rom image. Rom cycle time is a major reason why even on cyanogenmod |

Having knocked Android, I haven't found the time to try the latest |
| 27 |

| 28 |
sure it will have some major pluses over k9mail, which was a trade of |
| 29 |
good for bad on Gingerbread. |
