That is the standard practice and it's standard practice because it's the best thing for the consumer. I see no reason for Mr. Miller to deviate from that other than to get attention and he has succeeded in that. I agree that the security firm should have given Google a head start on the issue.

However, as a consumer and soon-to-be owner of the G1, I am glad to be informed of a potential threat. Security flaws are inevitable, we are fortunate to have a "good guy" be the one to break the news, and not some coder with malicious intent. Hopefully Google gets cracking ASAP.
