Why do you feel the need to lie like that? No, I don't support anything such. I support the freedom to tinker, and adherence to the law on users rights.

The "walled garden" was AOL's approach, and like AOL it's going to be rolled up handily when there are decent alternatives on the market, alternatives which are now rapidly gaining ground.
erm lie like what? I have no idea what you mean? im assuming you misread something?

EDIT ah I see is this clearer "the point is people know all of that dawnfalcon. And I would defend Apples rights to do whatever they choose on a device they make and sell!

The devs you know isnt really a good look at the whole dev industry though, I would suggest actual apps created is a better judge and on that basis devs CURRENTLY favour developing on iPhone even with Apples approach hence there are many more apps being made for iDevices.
