Your point?

Even then, Jobs made bad decisions. Like depending on HTML5, which was in draft, to obviate the need for apps on mobile devices. Jobs had to be dragged, kicking and screaming, to add apps to the Apple store which was only supposed to provide content for the iPod.

That you got sucked into the Apple walled garden sounds like a personal problem to me. I have never owned an Apple product for a lot of reasons. The biggest is that you don't really own an Apple product, they always control everything. Is it still true you can't arrange the location of icons on the iPhone screen?

Motorola?

LG?

Amazon?

Google?

Sony?
