Turn off javascript on your BlackBerry?

RIM has issues, and we all know it. Adding fuel to the fire to Blackberry's incompetent wap browser, a big exploit has surfaced in BlackBerry OS 6. Reported in RIM's browser is a Java Script-related bug that malicious websites could possibly gain access to your data stored on your phone and your memory card. RIM has commented on this issue explaining they haven't seen evidence of anyone exploiting the vulnerability, but are urging people to be safe and disable Javascript on infected devices, or to be safe disable it ahead of time until the issue has been patched.

In my opinion and it still ceases to amaze me, when I ask people, "what's so good about Blackberry's?" Their only response is BBM. BBM is NOT a reason to stay with a platform, especially when Blackberry's rely so heavily on everyone else staying on it too. But, then again people seem to hardly use RIM's browser and most of it's other features because of the lack of usability, so maybe this won't affect that many people. All-in-all, androids got issues, and so does other OS like iOS, symbian, meego, etc, but they do have A LOT of other good features to back it up. Included is more references, and a tutorial on how to be safe. ( Link )
