Agreed 100%. I can't even begin to imagine the talent that teamwin and other groups like them have. Two questions come up, however:

1. I trust teamwin to do the right thing, but is it possible that a non-so-altruistic group of "developers" has independently discovered this serious hole and is developing malicious code?

2. Is now the right time to buy a 3D (if you haven't already) before the hole becomes public knowledge and perhaps HTC starts shipping devices with an updated OS that plugs the hole? I know they said they would ship devices with an unlocked bootloader, but no one knows when that will happen.

well if we expect to get route by this weekend, i would say buy it.
 
You have the joy of watching people hold back information that should be shared with everyone so they can continue their never ending quest for glory and donations.

Good thing the people who found all those kernel exploits didn't feel the same way.

I'm trying to give them the benefit of the doubt here and say they want to get things at least somewhat polished up before releasing to the wild- that way hundreds (thousands?) of people don't bork their phones trying to do what they did with shotty instructions.

Trying.
