You make a good point about how the App store is an easy way to find applications. I disagree with the PC world full of free apps. Especially in this world of the internet where almost all programs have to be provisioned. I have paid for all of my programs throughout all the decades. I never called the Apple App store evil. It has pluses and minuses like everything else. You see everything as an attack to Apple and therefore to you. I apologize if that is the case and made you upset.
I just started this thread to say I am buying the EXOPC and I think others might like it. If some prefer the iPad than that is great. I have seen the iPad and iphone and they are great devices. I just prefer others. This isn't a zero sum discussion. There are tech products for all product segments, price points and for all of us. Enjoy the iphone and ipad and be happy there is competition to keep all of them on their toes.

Finally developers get something for their money and average people don't have to scour the internet to find an app when they are all neatly categorized in the app store, which is a huge success. The average person never pays a dime in the open and fair to developers pc world, yet the very same people pay loads of cash for apple's evil closed system to the same developers.
