Has anyone here installed firewall software on their PDAs, cell phones or other wireless devices? (I mean on the actual mobile device, not the server.)

Here's an example:

Probably because even mobile devices still have security vulnerabilities and Dos attack opportunities etc. But i personally have not seen anything but you may find something here: , http://download.com.com/2001-2005-0.html?tag=dir it is the mobile device version of downloads.com.
