I agree w/ Tim, its a massive security issue (its been popping up alot
latley, backdoors in routers (come on people, it didnt just "land"
there) ... some bugs have been good ones due to IO (WRT54G) but I dont
think Id trust it 100%.  The funny part is that companies are extremely
reluctant to spend on security.  I would be too if nothing happened, id
feel it as a waste of resources and money for preventitive measures I
didn thave to take.

On the flip side the worry is that we dont want tech to be so closed
that other countries build themselves into superior developers (thus
open trade for the market).  Its a mess :-)
