...and not only that... it's not just about contacts. Any app can read your SD card contents - you know where many apps store stuff like their twitter caches, email caches, people store pics of their girlfriends, etc. Full Internet Access could send the lot somewhere.

installing droidwall from market goes a long way to stop apps from calling home. just define which apps are allowed to access internet via wireless / 3g

^ wow is this guy for real?

I'm not admin anymore but Sun, Solaris, AIX, BSD and Linux admin back in the 90's.

PS- I'm interested in what good antivirus apps to install on Android, I already know about Norton's. Considering how scary it can be after reports of a wallpaper app maliciously sending personal users' information to the developer.
