Just a different take...

I'm very much a geek and tinkerer. I have never felt restricted by my iPhone or my iPad in any way. Quite the contrary in fact. I've yet to think up anything I wanted to do that I'm not able to do. I feel they are only simple and predictable in a good sense. And I customize everything I do to the nTH degree.

Apple's 'control' over products and services is simply quality control IMHO...and it works.

By the way, this is not a knock on Android products. I have no doubt I would like them if I tried them. I've just never felt the need.
