Let me give you my personal experience with Apple products. Before I bought my first computer, I did consult some of my customers who were using both O.S. (Mac and WIndow) based computers and their advise was to stay away from window based to avoid the headache's at a later date. Beside them reviews in consumer magazine helped me in making a right investment in my Powerbook 145B in 1993. It is still working and it proves that Apple computer products are most reliable and worth every cent of investment. Even the printer is working to this day.Apple products are for rich people who want to splurge money just for the sake of it even if it gives them less features othan other competant products. No wonder this exchange makes the Apple a trillion dollar company

My second and the latest is IMac and very much satisfied with its performance. On the other side if one looks at Window based hardware we get bombarded with viruses day in day out and Mac is protected with built in firewall.
And? Apple has always been about design and elegance, if they wanted to start their own plants and manufacturing centres they could do it in a heart beat, and have their production monopolize the entire industry... but that wasn't Jobs' vision for Apple.Yes along with A4, all manufactured by Samsung in Austin
Apple is one of the largest customer of Samsung in supplying semiconductor components.
Even windows has a built in firewall, and numerous excellent free firewalls (such as Comodo Internet Security - anyone needing some security, this is one of the best firewalls around, I really recommend this!) are available.Let me give you my personal experience with Apple products.

So you are telling me that Apple does not depend on manufacturers & its just holding back its awesomeness ?And? Apple has always been about design and elegance, if they wanted to start their own plants and manufacturing centres they could do it in a heart beat, and have their production monopolize the entire industry... but that wasn't Jobs' vision for Apple.
Jobs philosophy was to keep Apple out of all that nonsense because it leads to dependence on other companies. Apple doesn't need Samsung at all it can manufacture everything from the ground up if it needs to, unlike Samsung which depends on Apple as it's biggest single customer.
Yep that's exactly what I'm telling you. Of course plants don't just pop out of thin air, but Apple can definitely transition to complete independence if it needs to. The only reason Apple buys from Samsung at all is because it can get the parts manufactured at a lower cost than if Apple chose to manufacture those components themselves. So yeah prices would go up for Apple consumers, but Apple would still be alive and well. As you can tell Apple products are recession proof, and demand is constantly growing.So you are telling me that Apple does not depend on manufacturers & its just holding back its awesomeness ?
Wait till Apple starts using Samsung's AMOLED technology displays.
iPhone 5 to Feature an OLED Display
And please don't tell me about Job's philosophy.
Apple products are not recession proof. Wealthy people are recession-proof so they afford to buy this expensive iPhone shyt with half of the features Android can offer.Yep that's exactly what I'm telling you.

That article is complete nonsense conjecture along with every other site that tries to make claims about future Apple products. Once a confirmed prototype leaks, get back to me.
iPhones are only expensive in India because carriers won't subsidize the cost with a contract. iPhones are selling tremendously well in every other market but India for this very reason.Apple products are not recession proof.

Contract thing is because of TRAI policy leading to Indians enjoy one of the cheapest call rates in the world.iPhones are only expensive in India because carriers won't subsidize the cost with a contract. iPhones are selling tremendously well in every other market but India for this very reason.
Here in Canada a 16GB 4S is only $159 on a 3-year contract which is very cheap.
Would you mind being more specific? I tried out every Android phone, and they all had the same features as the iPhone. The only difference was the app store/marketplace.Contract thing is because of TRAI policy leading to Indians enjoy one of the cheapest call rates in the world.
Still even in India, iPhones can not provide features that Android has and still iphones are expensive
Hmm I guess we'll just have to wait and see what future Android phones are capable of.Android and iOS are very similar in the applications it can run. It is just that the iOS is expensive for everybody to buy while Android has so much to offer because it is free.
Currently it is all fine, but once Android phones get more powerful the kind of applications Android will run will be mind boggling.
I have heard Ice cream Sandwich has the best user interface there is.

That article is from may 2011 which is before iOs 5 and the 4S were released. Now Apple has Siri which is far superior to Google voice, and a jailbroken iPhone can still do all of those things except 2,3, and 6 which are really non-essential to me.I did post this link before.
