I see the cult of Apple as distinct from the general market, and offer no explanation, EXCEPT TO SAY that, when we were shopping for a small portable device for my wife, we researched, and ended up with an iPod Touch, because, while the price jump they demand for a 16GB non-expandable memory increase sickened me, there was nothing else that did what it did, as well as it did it, to be found at any price.
