Apple screwing me over at every turn

And as far as blaming the game no other company pulls the kind of stuff apple does

I wish I could JB my brain to use more then 10% of it at a time. 😜
I'm just being stupid, but if people didn't rush out to buy the newest of the new because it makes them cool then apple wouldn't do what they do.
Also other companies place restrictions on their products as well. Example, blackberries get locked depending on what company they are sold too so that you can't put any sim card in from any company. So you have to go and unlock them. When I'm in Canada I'm with Rogers and I get a free gps app. When I cross to the states and put in my AT&T sim card that free gps app disappears. Every companies goal is to maximize profit. Apple are really good at doing that. If you want a cheap tablet get one from India. If you buy apple products you know full well what you are getting ahead of time. -
Yeah bit apple blocks it device to a near zero functionality. And with 4.0+ os crappy multi task toggles I'd say unusable. We should be given devices that actually do something without having to hack to he able to do what everyone else is already doing.

Some vehicles have governors in them that restrict speed. It's the right of the company to say I want this product to do just this and only this. And it's your right to buy it fully knowing what it's limitations are. If you choose to JB it then cool. I choose to shove a pencil in the governor of a golf cart to make it go faster. -
Jus gonna throw this out there but y don't you jus save the money and not get any keyboard lol. If it's just gonna b for punching codes it's not worth it. I punched so many codes on the iPod I'm so fast with it that I would b faster on this then a keyboard lol. Then again I've punched over like 15000 codes lol

Waaaa
What company doesnt tryy to get more ££€€$$ out of you at every turn? -
I don't know about it having 0 value pre JB. It is intended to run apps. Mines not JB and it runs apps just fine. Im not sure what all you get when you JB though. Everyone I know that has JB only does it to get free apps.

Apple as a company is far from "good" when it comes to consumer Support and PR. They do have some of the best products in today's Market yes, but these make Apple acceptable, not exceptional. As a company now, they are pure genius. Keeping consumers constantly on their toes by making them upgrade, I wouldn't say Apple is screwing anyone, we all buy their products out if choice. They are not a dictatorship that forces you! Lol. Btw 5 row keyboard works awesome! Has got me back in to code pounching routine!

Agreed sbsettings is a feature apple should have had on the original iOS platform. I mean what a crazy idea, not having open up the settings app to change things. Thats so fast. Why would anyone want that? Edit your homescreen? Yeah right! Wait ipt 2nd gens can't use a background on the springboard? HOW DOES THAT MAKE ANY BLOODY SENSE!?!?!? Honestly you know apple is screwing you over when your freakin 200$ device can't have a springboard background.Kozy wrote:

Yes of course it's genius! Apple makes $$$$ while we all try to catch up every few months.

That I'll agree with. Definitely greedy lol. As much as we hate them, we love their products. And its true what they say...us Apple users are sheep. Eventually, we all upgrade to a newer (almost better) product! BAAAA.

Vadan...just stfu. A company in India came out with a tablet for $35 bucks that supports flash, video conferencing and pretty much does everything an iPad can do except for download apps from iTunes. $35 is cheaper then $1000. Unless I'm wrong there but I'm pretty sure I'm not.Mr Baron wrote:

U moron. Just because something is cheaper doesn't mean it's lacking quality. Just because it's built in India don't mean it's shit. They would still be using China mass produced internal compotents. U obviously have no clue as to what u waffle on about. Where are the majority of garments manufactured coming from? India. Where are majority of the raw materials processed? China. And my point was targeted mainly at baron.
-
You obviously can't read and are making assumptions about what I'm saying. Where did I say it was shitty? I said cheap as in price that's it. I said it does more then what apple products can do. You called both of us fools and said we are both speaking nonsense.

When did the iPad start costing 1 grand? Any tablet thats 35$ whether it has more "features" than the iPad is completely garbage. If you've watched Dr. Ashens you'd know. Look up ashens on youtube and you'll know what I mean. He reviews crappy tech from china. Proof that 35$ tablets are just terrible. The features those tablets have aren't even worth having because things such as a camera, yeah there a blurry mess. Battery life is awful. I mean most of those "features" aren't worth having in the first place on a POS tablet anyway.
-
Yeah iggy no doubt u always get what u pay for, goes with everything in life. Barons suggestion assuming a china made knock-off would obviously be better than an india made knock-off was absorb though. Kozy, u didn't say it and it wasn't directed at u sorry. I just don't see the "obviousness".

Sorry to clarify, the 64 gig iPad with wifi, 3G, warranty, case and taxes came to $1100 in Montreal when I bought it back in June.
Here is an article about the $35 tablet from India.

Sorry B, this is the most erroneous statement I've seen in a while. Every tech company does what Apple does. 400 bux for a one step upgrade of windows, 1200 for an intel CPU, 600 for a somewhat useable video card? And all three of those items will be one to two gens old in 18-24 months. Tech evolves fast, we lock in when we buy. If we are early adopters we pay a premium, if we buy later in the cycle we get a better cost but we only get to watch it go out of date sooner.And as far as blaming the game no other company pulls the kind of stuff apple does
