The Orange SPV has achieved the dubious distinction of being the first Microsoft smartphone to have its security cracked. Orange as set the phones up so they will only run Orange-certified applications, but as yet hasn't got much further than promises when it comes to telling people how you develop for it, get apps certified, get development systems and so on.
Which means a lot of deeply unhappy would-be SPV developers - until now. It's not absolutely clear to us who first came up with a crack, but MoDaCo has checked it out, it works and there's a certain amount of happly cackling from that direction.
