Your "analogy" (if you want to call it that) fails because if you want an iPhone, you have to buy it from Apple. If you don't want one you can buy another smartphone, and Apple won't mind but it won't be an iPhone. Gas is not an exclusive to Exxon product. You can buy it from wherever you want, and you can shop for a lower price. If you want an iPhone, you get it from Apple, simple and plain. Like I said, for the third time, if you voluntarily buy something knowing full well the price, whether its Exxon/Apple/Uncle Jim it's nonsensical to say "Pick those pockets clean!" or "So overpriced!". That's why your "analogy" is flawed.
If you, without being under any duress, voluntarily go to an Apple store and buy an iPhone, and then say "pick those pockets clean!![]()

" I'm being honest with you, I'm laughing at you, quite heartily too. You're, for lack of a better word, being ripped off BIG TIME, and Apple is undoubtedly laughing at you as well because you seem to think you're some sort of smart consumer who realizes you're getting ripped off yet continues to get ripped off.
About my blog, you seem upset about it. I understand that, because you see yourself in all my articles. Thanks for reading it though.
What really fails is you calling someone a fandroid who has never posted about Android phones and doesn't own one. I'm laughing at you even harder because you don't get it. It takes a real man to trash talk people behind their backs.
