The PPC has really taken off lately, so have applications. I forsee an explosion of little virii popping up here and there very soon. Probably starting out where someone has hooked into an executable inside a .cab, and doing fun stuff, or erasing your memory card, and even worst doing it's thing at random so it won't be noticed at instalation!.

True you can restore a backup, but the cab you installed yesterday, installed a virus. The virus was triggered to run at a random 15+ hours from install. It first corrupted your storage card so you can't restore on the spot. And if you miss that phone call from "Chow Ling" in ten minutes to purchase millions of dollars of merchandise....You might as well have called him "Stinky fish face" cause your boss will curse you while he is firing you, you wife will ask you how you missed that $10,000 commission check because you didn't have a virus scanner....I've got plenty of speed and memory, I'm thinking about buying airscanner.

Coming soon to a PPC near you! (Just my thoughts....)

Yes the file could be a virus or the song itself could have a some data attached that is malicious code or even better it could be t-locked into an mp3 like they do with photo's and such. If you use filesharing you pretty much are pulling you pant down and bending over just waitin for someone to take a plunge.

Well, although I understand the reasoning of an antivirus application on my phone, I just can't see myself giving up precious RAM to run it when I would just hard reset my phone if I got a virus.

I would probably wait for a more ram/processing friendly phone before I invested in antivirus software, it just isn't that much of a threat atm.
