About the only investment I have in iPhone is iMessage. If I do leave, it's back to SMS. Since most cell plans now have unlimited texting (and mine does) that's not any big issue to me.
Everything else is different services. Dropbox, Google, etc. And there is nothing on my phone that would be devastating to lose.
I may benefit actually by leaving in that I might end up with a phone that I can synce content with. I may leave iPhone but I'm certainly not throwing out my Macs.
And this is another reason Apple guards their secrets and only rarely allows limited use outside of Apple devices. People get comfortable and they become used to what's working for them. The incentive against change and the problems associated with change are often enough to prevent change.
Which is not a bad thing. We all use what it is that works best for us. I just object to surrendering total control so I don't keep all my eggs in one basket.
As to changes, I sure hope so. Believe it or not I'd like to stick with Apple. Moving the wife over to something else is an entirely different thing than myself alone.![]()
I certainly wouldn't expect you to part ways with your Mac lineups. That would just be rebellious of you Erik. I do question how you would adjust to leaving your jailbroken iPhone.
But the whole point is, is that you have to take an iPhone user like yourself and realize Apple has not made the changes necessary that appeal to you and you have options. If you ended up purchasing an android device, you have 14 days to try it and see if it would suit you. I actually would really look forward to reading your review what you think of the hardware/software advantages or disadvantages.
