Some of the posters around here are such suckers. Talk about a reality distortion field, sheesh.

sucker: One who is easily deceived
If someone is a good liar does it still make all people believing them suckers? The only thing I find surprising is the amount of people around here constantly insulting each other. Take your thinly veiled insults somewhere else.

Wow, what a comeback, I am speechless.
Note: I haven't said it's a better system, just that it's different - and very widely adopted.

Well yes, if you're the sort of person that for some reason needs to use multiple different pdf readers to read a single document then yes it could be annoying. In the broad sense it's usually not a problem.
If I save a PDF file from the browser, the PDF file is now stuck inside the browser app, I cant use another app to access it. I would have to e-mail it to myself, or use some file transfer program to take it out and transfer it to the reader/annotation app.
Why the need to go through all those steps? It certainly isn't more "secure". its just stupid and annoying. I'm sure Apple will release an update with a shared data space sooner or later, and at that point you'll be one of the people going "OMG THIS IS SO AWESOME! APPLE IS GENIUS! HOW DID I EVER LIVE WITHOUT THIS FEATURE BEFORE!?"

Again, i'm not saying it's a better solution, just different but given you are disputing the very fundamentals of security it appears you're just calling it 'stupid and annoying' because you don't like it.

... I mean, sure... WP7 isn't the greatest thing out there. But as it stands, to compare it to other vilified OS's... surprises me.

I just didn't know what you were comparing it to. I'm fresh off of 10 days of using WP7 and oddly enough, it's not half bad.
Too bad... it's only half good. MeeGo being finished would have stopped this move to WP7 by Elop. That's where it all went wrong in my opinion.
Oh... and the three horse thing, definitely not applicable in the North American market. RIM, iOS and Android are the big three here. WP7 will make it 4. But overseas, they're going to possibly try to make it a 3 horse race by killing off Symbian.
That's a risk I'd rather not take if I were Nokia. Hell... I sorta miss the days of the silent Nokia. The new stuff communicated hasn't exactly been the best for Nokia.
