Your talk of getting rid of bad products applies perfectly to GM. The way companies get lame overtime is what I refer to as the “bloat”.

Apple is in the business to make money, They make money by selling their stuff. Even if they make turds, as long as a lot of people buy turds, Apple makes a lot of money. The iPad may be the next big turd and for a Kool-Aid drinking fanboy, like me and may be 10,000,000 others, you can always use a new turd; especially if you consider what the new turd MAY BE and are not fixated on what the new turd IS NOT

I always wondered what a $500 etch-a-sketch would look like.

Rex, I don’t always agree with you, but AMEN BROTHER! I couldn’t agree more on everything you said, and I bet Jesus (baseball player) would too, if he were around to read it!

I will cop to owning an iPhone, but I grew tired of the iBullshit and jail-broke it 2 weeks after I bought it. It’s a shame that Apple forces people who simply want to use their quality hardware to resort to such tactics. For my needs (short e-mails/texts, light reading/internet browsing, and videos I rip from DVDs plus some casual gaming), my phone is great. I sure as hell wasn’t going to let AT&T arbitrarily handicap my Slingbox, and the multitasking works perfectly. I’m still baffled why they don’t allow that normally — there is plenty of horsepower for it.
