quote from Macworld’s “Analysis: Application blocking diminishes iPhone“”“There is some serious frustration from people that did not unlock the phone but did use third-party applications,” said Tim Bajarin, president of high-tech consulting firm Creative Strategies. “The fact those apps have been altered has caused a big outcry. Apple is taking a significant hit because enough of people found those applications useful.”What outcry? What significant hit? Last time I checked Apple stock was at an all time high. If that is a hit, every company in the world is wishing they would get that hit as well.I believe Mr. Grueber over at DaringFireball, is closer to the reality of the situation.”Me, on the other hand, I didn’t hesitate to upgrade my iPhone. The third-party hacks were fun to play with, but there isn’t a single one that I miss.”
I believe his sentiment is closer to the reality of the situation then the pure crap oozing out of this statement by Christopher Breen in his article “Is Apple on the Wrong Path?” “I’m aware that Apple feels it must do right by AT&T but to offer up an update that it knows will destroy hacked iPhones—and provide no provision for undoing the damage—is a despicable act.”Yeah, not supporting hacks…Geez that is frickin unheard of.
Are you kidding me?
