Yup we need an app for that!

Let Google pump out the updates, and the manufacturers & telcos pump their add ons separately.
Buyers don't want to be waiting for Android updates simply because the manufacturer doesn't care, or would rather they buy another handset. HTC hero & Samsung i5700 galaxy owners are still waiting for 2.1 with no dates in sight.
Let alone froyo or gingerbread!
Rather than fight an attack on all fronts, with a bloated and increasing unpopular re-hash of Symbian, buy yourself some time and launch an Android handset FFS!
You can piss about developing your own OS as much as you like then, as you'd have staved the flow of customers away from Nokia for better handsets that work simply.
Been loyal to you, Nokia, for 14 years, but have jumped to the 'droid and wont look again at anything powered by Symbian or Meego (or whatever it's called) as it just ruins the phone.
Apple knew what these apps did, and how they did it. It's all part of the process of getti9ng them in the store.
But no one seems to have linked this action, to yesterday's salvo against HTC and Google.
So the question is, who owns patents covering scanning for wireless networks automatically? NOT Apple ;)
Expect more apps that violate non Apple patents to vanish shortly....
