Do you think that he's getting all the success from suckering many people with overpriced inferior products?

IMHO, your energy is better off being invested in improving whatever it is that you believe in (Maemo platform? Go port apps to Hildon so NIT get more apps in its library!)

Disclaimer: I own apple products. I enjoy them. I own Nokia products, they're cool too. I absolutely love the N800. I own Treo 680, it's indispensable for me. Etc etc..

HaveHave your cake, eat it too.
Actually i hate apple because every product is over priced and steve jobs announces them as absolute miracles. Look at nokia... they dont overprice thier products and they dont brag about something which is good as being out of the world. Did you ever hear that modesty is a virtue. Yeah i undersatnd one needs to advertise products. But the way iphone and touch were released was like they were the best in the world. Well i dont blame steve even i would do the same if i had a bunch of brainless fanboys going gaga over every product i release.
Its just frustrating to see companies like apple being able to make huge profits by selling substandard products for thier specific price while not spending any of it on good deeds like the environment.
Just look at nokia never did they mention about the effort they put into the environment and imagine how steve would have spoken at each and every keynote about the wonderful job they were doing if they actually did half of what nokia did!!!
And the way apple treats 3 party software and open source is pathetic. Look at nokia they embrace them and we all know nokia is also trying to wrench control from the absolutely dumb cellular services providers in the u.s even at the risk of losing buisiness. Nokia thinks for the people and the future. But all apple does is making money . Nothing wrong in it. But it is definitely something else to do to do wat nokia is doing. Have you ever tried being modest???? Do it once and izam sure you will appreciate it the next time.
