Whenever an Apple product so much starts up a second slower than expected everyone's all over it.
This kind of coverage and hand-wringing is happening because it's Apple and expectations are that mich higher. The device can perform beautifully 99 times out of 100, outclassing all the also-rans. But that one time is what gets the hits.

This "vulnerability" does nothing of any real consequence.
Dude... This is the most incredible vulnerability!
It lets me listen in to your microphone whereever you are just from knowing your phone number, without you knowing at all.
It lets me check your location anytime and you can never tell.
All you see is "No Service" instead of signal bars for a moment.
It can also be used to create a botnet for attacking other phones or computers.
The demos of it are very cool. This is a very high profile vulnerability... There is no workaround and all iPhones are wide open.
Thankfully Apple will fix this before it becomes public knowledge.

More FUD from those unwilling to stomach that Apple is rearranging entire industries as we speak.
Behold, the consummate Apple apologist, and resident Steve Jobs pants dweller. This kind of thinking is what gives Apple enthusiasts a bad reputation.

Apple isn't the only one to have SMS vulnerabilities.
Symbian was hit with one in January.
And this looks like fun:

But who cares about these??
