my understanding is that Caribe only affect symbian series 60 phones so you should not see this in the K700
what symptoms are you seeing?

Even if it did arrive on your phone it could not run since it is a symbian app, now if it were a Java app it probably still couldn't do anything harmful as the Java on the K700 is very restricted in terms of accessing the phone directly! |
