This is almost always the case, stupid suits' assertions
notwithstanding, once something gets produced in any sort of volume.
Would it be too much to ask that you not drop ads for your devices in
your email? I already get far too many ads as it is, and don't need
more - especially shoehorned into otherwise interesting discussions.
It is an incredibly sleazy thing that all of these companies put crap
like that into their configurations by default. Most people don't even
know they're sending that stuff. Yuck!

Probably, but that would likely get someone upset at you if the result
were to achieve wide distribution. If you do
that, why not just save yourself the trouble of writing the
code in the first place?
Sometimes hardware costs - either primary (eg the chip) or secondary
(eg board space, power draw) outweigh software costs. Enviado do meu Motorola PT550
