What I do have a problem with is the amazing amount of noise coming from the more vocal Android proponents all over the Web. They never let you hear the end of it. Everywhere you go. "Android FTW!" "iPhone sucks!" "Apple cultists!" Blah, blah, blah. I'm not sure what they feel the need to prove.
That'll happen just as soon as Apple fans stop 'trolling' other forums with the same deafening noise, i.e., never.
The iPhone fans like LTD will never be happy until every other smartphone platform is gone and everyone is forced to the iPhone. I know that is what you are hoping and praying for so everyone looks the same, but it is not going to happen.
This is something I've often wondered. When will these fans be happy? One product at one price is by its very nature not a solution for everyone. LTD et al should be happy that other companies have stepped in to fill the voids in Apple's lineup, yet all they ever seem to post is constant criticism and negativity.
Maybe this is misdirected annoyance/frustration? It is easier to bag on Google than it is to bag on their platform of choice for lack of options and flexibility. Instead of saying that it's bad of Apple to be so narrowly focussed, they criticise Android for being too broad. Uiltimately, the balance is somewhere in the middle, sort of around where Microsoft are pitching WP7. You get all the benefits of MS running a tight ship with the software, but on a whole range of devices at different prices from different manufacturers.
