Nokia e61's software certificate system
There is only one thing to say about this "security" feature the e61 has. It blows cock. It blows enormous 16 inch porn star cock. See, if the date on the certificate is too far behind what your phones date is, the app won't install. So I guess whoever wrote the program is supposed to keep updating the certificate, even if he changes nothing else in the program. Then if you need to reinstall it, you are supposed to download the new version, which is the same as the old version, except for the certificate being updated. Total bullshit. There is, of course, a workaround. Since there is no way to see the date of the certificate, you have to play musical dates with the phone settings. When you guess the right year, HURRAAHH, your app installs!! JOY JOY!!! I don't know how this is supposed to make your phone more "secure", are you only supposed to install new/updated apps? Programmers are usually pretty bright guys, but whoever came up with this system rode the short bus to school.

Online Ordering

STREET NO
APT 56
allowed NO NO NO!!! Now here is where it get's real cute. What you don't know is you are playing wheel of fortune because after so many tries, usually three, the fucking credit card goes into lockdown. A phone call won't fix this, you have to shlep to the bank to get it unlocked again. I had this shit happen to me so many times I went to the bank in a rage and had them print out exactly what they had on their computer. And you know what. I fucking STILL had a problem today, because even though the bank has the zip code in long form, and most places take that, paypal no longer does as the first time I tried to push an order through it got rejected. Fortunetely I DO still have the credit card user address exactly as the bank has it, so I was able to avoid the wheel of fortune shutdown, as everything else was spot on, the only thing I could think to do was change the zip from long form to short form which worked.
I fucking KNOW this picky ass rejection shit is not coming from the banks end, as I have been able to order from newegg and Amazon without an exact format duplicate of what the bank has, as long as the address matches, orders from them go through.
