- Netcast
- Potential malware in Android apps
- Vulnerabilities in the Safari browser in the iPhone, iPod Touch, etc. that also enable jail-breaking
- Need for firewalls (controlling outgoing traffic) and UAC for these devices
- A certification process for Android apps, paid by developers of apps
- As with so-called free applications available for Windows, Linux, etc., any type of code that is not from a trusted source is installed at your own risk. An application may not wipe out your data but perhaps worse, it can send your data to malicious users for their purposes. Code to be wary of include Firefox Add-Ins, GreaseMonkey scripts, etc. that may not normally be viewed as "applications"
