The fact is either you're into what, over here, is a niche market, or you're not. And it's not really about the quality of the game either. Prey the Stars Gabu Gabu Planet isn't a bad game, it's just steeped in Far Eastern cutesy that detracts from the experience.

Researchers Expect Hackers To Prey on Cell Phones

Now security researchers say cell phones, and not just PCs, are the next likely conscripts into the automated armies. The mobile phone as zombie computer is one possibility envisioned by security researchers from Georgia Tech in a new report coming out Wednesday. The report identifies the growing power of cell phones to open a new avenue of attack for hackers.
