uuhh, yeah.. off topic. so, expecting an 'srm' in maemo is impossible because it's practically ineffective?
but still I think it's still better to have a secure erase tool (even 1 pass zero bytes) rather than stuck with standard 'rm' where all deleted files can be easily spotted directly from the device using testdisk or any file recovery tool available on maemo
