It is a difficult topic, but one worth discussing I think. Cellphone security used to be an afterthought, at best. Google (and some rom maintainers) have done an amazing job at improving overall security. They have a long way still to go (such as forcing manufacturers to a certain level support), but what they've done thus far is commendable.
