Guys, let's think logically on what they tell us:
1. All mobile phones are vulnerable.
2. See one above.

Aside to the point that there are many manufacturors and that they have a
completely different code base (OS), and forgetting the fact that ALL
mobile phones work on different technologies (protocols) from CDMA to 3G...

There is no one vulnerability which will affect all these mobile
phones. Non.

An exploit for specific lines of phones is possible, and likely. Remember
the bluetooth one? It will happen again.

While the data networks may not be very secure despite being controlled
networks, there is crazy security done designed for the latest
protocols. Also, the SIM card is also very secure.

        Gadi.
