I wasn't claiming to invent the idea of wiping data -- I was claiming (sarcastically) that to invent the idea of wiping data for the iPhone... Even then I'm not talking about wiping all data, just the personal data that is left behind in cache. Just like there is a "Clear all private data" in Firefox there should be some way to do the same on the iPhone.
How is "they are becoming more powerful, and more like computers" on a different hand then "they are universally relied upon". I was expecting something contradictory. Isn't the phrase more like 'except'.
