Now, suddenly the user sees this might not actually be the case. And from then on the user, even if they stay with the iOS platform, well have some degree of unease with their decision making future loyalty something they will re-evaluate when it comes time to update their devices.

Like others, I hope this settles not just to the total benefit of the user, as hey it was out money we spent, but also lets Apple realize they have moved outside the comfort zone of users who truly just love the Apple brand into a place were people expect consistency and appreciation for deciding to buy into "the Apple way".
All this talk about Amazon is pure speculation at this point in time... or did I miss the announcement that the kindle app has been pulled from the App Store?
