Viruses May Tie Up Cellphones
textually.org reports a WSJ article stating that Viruses May Tie Up Cellphones. My surmise would be that since wireless carriers have a much greater control on the data being sent across their networks, this issue could more easily be kept under wraps as opposed to the traditional Internet. Besides companies such as 4thpass provide solutions to filter downloaded mobile phone software within the carrier infrastructure before they are downloaded to the mobile handset - similar to virus scanning/spam filters on mail server - but much more specialized.
Disclaimer: 4thpass is a Motorola subsidiary that I consult with.
