iPhone sure is a trendsetter but is overpriced. After I saw the Foxxcon videos on youtube, I do not like the product.
I find iPad to be very restrictive as well compared to some of the other tabs.
Just my personal view...

do you like MicroSoft, Samsung, Sony, Acer, Cisco, Dell, HP, Motorola, Intel, Nintendo, Nokia, or Toshiba?
because they all use Foxconn, too. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foxconn[^]

Thanks for your reply.
Oops, i did not know that, it is the iPhone hype that caught me then. Somehow I am not a big fan of Apple products. I have used those, but do not find the flexibility that Microsoft products have. No idea about the other products that you listed.
Thanks for the information anyways.

Agree with the microsoft issue.
The fact is Moon is look beautiful from far. but when we go in, moon does not look pretty(I went there in dream). we have option to work with microsoft that is why they look crappy sometimes because of depth of knowledge about microsoft.

Well, I've got a phone and while it's still working no new one is needed. My phone can all I need:
I can call, write SMS and it has got an alarm.
So what could an iPhone 5 do for me, what my five year old phone can't, except for stealing my money?

there's a new app which allows you to connect to Steve

Tried that app. It happens that you have to hold iPhone in a very specific way for that app to work. Finally got it working, and Steve said "You are holding it all wrong".

There is a serious anti-Apple bias by many of the vocal regulars at this site. Most are still Microsoft zealots who are jealous of recent Apple success and somehow think that Apple has to fail for Microsoft to succeed.

...for the same reason I bought my 3GS and my Mac Mini: Apple won't let me make my living as a programmer [which includes developing iOS apps] without one.

Completely overrated product. Prefer my HTC Titan running on Windows Phone.

...which leads me to ask, where is Apple's market? Why are we so different?

Well, many function that are available today for phones or for windows are invented by apple.
We are so different, because we are "Microsoft Developers" and some here in CP think that if microsoft released sh*t it must be gold (like ribbon bar or windows 8 or ms-Surface).

An obvious answer would be market saturation; those with iPhones are already happy and don't feel a need to upgrade.
As for me, I feel Apple's business practices are unfriendly both to developers and users and so I won't buy their products (e.g. Apple's restrictive app rules and ability to reject apps for almost any reason; their lawsuits against Samsung et al; the fact that their Chinese workers are far underpaid while iPhones have far higher profit margins than products from any other manufacturer... oh yeah, and I don't think eliminating buttons is the answer to every UI design problem  )
Oh yeah, and The CP has more Microsofties than your average developer site, doesn't it?
