Removing Application Lock on Windows Mobile Standard Devices

Our friend Mike Temporale at Mobile Jaw has posted two great articles about the understanding and removing of the application lock on Windows Mobile Standard Devices by carriers.

There’s more differences between Windows Mobile Standard and Professional than the touch capability of the screen. Application security is one of the major differences. When you install software on Professional based devices, the most you are asked is if you trust this unsigned application. If you say yes, then that application has full access to the device and any API’s that it would like to interact with.  That’s not the case with Windows Mobile Standard based devices.
