Unfortunately MACs can easily be spoofed, and if you are running open it'd be very easy to inject some packets and figure out what MAC addresses are in use... Just to let ya know, and sorry for continuing this OT discussion

arrrghhh: Thanks. The reformatting using a different (non-window) utility did the trick.

The internal memory is now recognized as a 4GB SD, and flash and skyfire work. They also appear in marketplace.

Thanks for your help. Now the Diamond works in every way except camera. So a very usable android solution.

Actually, while they have the same processor and RAM, the TP2 has always performed better in WinMo than DIAM and RAPH. Maybe it's driver differences, or something else like chipset differences, but you would actually think it would run slower with increased resolution, but benchmarks suggest otherwise. Also, in my own experience, the TP2 was definitely smoother in WinMo than my old DIAM.

Benchmark:
HTC Touch Pro2 - Review

if someone is that determined to get in they are going to anyways.... im just saying. it is easy enough to spoof just about anything if you are able to catch a few packets

that and i already hacked my neighbors networks to make sure none of them were geeks that could hack me lol

I bet you'd be surprised to know that aluminum foil hats actually amplify the signals used for GPS and Cellular Data. MIT students are hilarious: http://berkeley.intel-research.net/arahimi/helmet/

As Arrrghhh has said, MAC address spoofing is extremely simple, and technically one could grab the MAC address of your router, then deauth all clients, and re-route all clients to their machine by spoofing the MAC/IP of the wireless router. Now they have access to all of your sessions as a man in the middle attack

I wouldn't even bother setting up MAC address filtering as its a waste of your time. The only viable solution is WPA2, and always run Firefox with the Blacksheep addon if you really have to connect to a public use Wifi.

OK, sorry for the OT. Time for bed

I repeat... you guys scare me... I just beg, please don't steal my pron!!! lol (And yes, I use WPA2 at home...)
