It can write but forces html onto users, which potentially includes jpg exploits, png exploits, html exploits, script exploits, font exploits... And before you say anything. For what benefit, annoying ads from paypal. I am quite capable of opening a browser and deciding which domains *I* trust?? Google's network fell into this trap and banned Windows, but did they fix the real problem or just raise the bar a little (though I expect they took other unreleased measures that would be more interesting)? Would be even worse on Iphones where webkit is forced and so as old as the rom image. Rom cycle time is a major reason why even on cyanogenmod I use firefox over the chrome package which is ancient. Of course on Apple laptops even, Safari's webkit is sometimes months old anywhow. Having knocked Android, I haven't found the time to try the latest native email app. I'm not expecting a no html option but I'm pretty sure it will have some major pluses over k9mail, which was a trade of good for bad on Gingerbread. -- _______________________________________________________________________ 'Write programs that do one thing and do it well.
