Re: iphone OS userspace apps run as root

said by dave:

(To comment on Justin's interpretation of the question: yes, Windows CE has a file system. No, Windows CE does not have file permissions. As far as I know.)
That's correct -- but a lot of the programs people install on mobile phones come in the form of J2ME MIDlets, which do have some form of permissions/sandboxing system.

Yes I think thats the difference. If iPhone can limit optional programs to sandboxed browser plugins, java applets and flash, then it is probably not much less safe than a windows CE smartphone.
