Paul,

If I remember correctly, Apple is the little company that has the Mac- it's
like a PC only expensive and the software you use probably doesn't work on
it.

Apple had a good thing way back when and they decided not to let other
companies build their hardware. Now they have a hobby market for their
machine.

They are trying to do the same thing with their phones. They have a great
product. But they are attempting to control their market with a
straitjacket. These tactics will marginalize their new device to a smaller
religiously devoted following- just as happened with the Mac.

Which is probably why Apple's cell phone "...market share fell from 18.1% in
the third quarter to 16.6%" (

)

They are making good money- I wouldn't mind making that much money, but they
could be even bigger.
