So few use native security people think there is none.
Sure, I totally agree.
Most users don't understand or accept security on their (private) Windows PC AND they want to install programs.
Hence my saying is that they still continue to mess up their Windows PC easily and blame MS.

My referring to Apple certification was about their central shop concept from where users can download the "funny Smiley pack" all day long without compromising their incoming call while enjoying a feeling of freedom within their sandbox.

Point is that when besides using the factory provided functionality (which can be hit or miss, depending on individual requirement) downloading "free" apps is an objective an sich then the N900, with it's low mass entertainment appeal, will most likely provide a disappointing experience.
