Yeah, android will be bigger because it's free, how's that for a business model. Great job. Bah, how stupid.
I hope people understand how the phones would still look if Apple didn't think about it to make something great that really works. Before every smartphone had a stylus and a keyboard. Apple came without one and everybody laughed. Now go in a store and look how the smartphones look, they all look like copy cats.
When apple made the ipad everybody laughed with it: hey it's an iphone who isn't possible to make calls
yeah right, it was a bloody game changer, look how many units sold, so many happy customers and what is it now, 150 copy tablets ?
You got to give credit to apple to really make something that works and what people want and like, the result are the sales numbers, saying that it's because users are stupid is bullshit, people buy because they like it.
Remember when everybody made the ipod killer? Yeah right, no one succeeded to make a product where you don't have to read the manual, except Apple did.
The others are just running behind and COPYING. Simple as that.
I'm a tech savy person, I program in Assembler and C/C++ and J2EE etc. I like Apple products, they are extremely powerfull and configurable with the underlying FreeBSD (that is the Mac OSX) and it works great, it's stable and my life is much more productive with Apple products. People who are against apple are doing that because they don't know apple products. There are plenty of people moving from windows to apple, there are only a minority leaving apple back to windows. Think about that.
