Sounds like Palm are a breeding ground for viruses
Of course not. It still requires permissions to install. The manufacturer just allows you do what you wish with the hardware you buy rather than be overly controlling. It allows for a much more individual, customisable, well suited and, with the correct direction, more flexible and usable OS.
Of course, if one is daft enough to install a virus or allow it to install itself, then it's their own fault...
