802.1x EAP TTLS
Many universities use 802.1x authorizations for their wifi networks. On WM6.5 a program called SecureW2 was used however there is no such program for Windows Phone 7. On and Android and other iOS devices there are methods to connect to 802.1x networks. Will there be any new implementation of this in any new updates for windows phone?

Hello, I'm from Universitat Pompeu Fabra (Barcelona).
Today, my mobile operator had offered to me a Nokia Lumia 710 and a Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo V.I like the new Metro designg. It could be a litle more customizable, but it's prety beautifull.
I was hesitant to choose one of these mobile phones.
I personally don't have internet on my mobile, because as I'm a lot of time in the University or in Home and there are a lot of Wifi zones in the city, I don't need it.The problem was that I discovered that WP7.5 does not support 802.1X EAP-TTLS. So, even If I prefer Windows Phone, I've finally choosed the Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo V.
So, to not loose more potencial clients, please, resolve it, and if possible before 1 or 2 years, when I supose that I'll change my mobile phone.
