Re: WTF? Really?

Great, another potential bloatware app to ignore.

Not if you don't download the app

Or purchase a new phone, or update the software...

Do you know for a fact it will only be made available if you opt to download it?

When Sprint made a deal with Blockbuster, everyone had a new app pushed to their phones that automatically communicated over the air to update movie catalogs in the background, unless this option was deactivated.

No, I don't know for a fact that it will be pre-installed. Do you? My DX came with the Blockbuster app, and many other unwanted/unneeded apps, until I fixed the problem. Where there's a will, there's a way.

No, but I did use the word "potential" in my comment. Guess we will have to wait and see. Rootability (better patent that word before Apple gets a hold of it) is just another feature I suppose many of us will have to weigh-in before purchasing a new phone going forward.
