I have no religious hang ups or allegiances to any one vendor over another - I prefer to use tools that fit the situation - without regard to who makes them or any religious debates. You made an ad hominem attack - I called you on it. Who's getting defensive? > Have you read into the SDK any further? Did you see how locked > down it is? Locked down in what ways? Yes, you have to sign your apps and yes you have to distribute them through Apple - but then again the model they are using will give way more exposure to the average developer (i.e. Sunbelt vs. MS) then having to market yourself out there. Quite frankly, it's way more open then I expected. Heck, AOL showed off AIM right out the door and people just swore up and down that Apple/AT&T would never allow that because it would cut into text messaging fee's. So, are these more baseless assumptions or do you have real examples of "restrictions" that are actually restrictive in the real world vs. the hypothetical land of illusion? > Probably not, you?re just excited that you can now > have an Ipod that connects to an Exchange server. Go Apple. See, there you go with the baseless ad hominem attacks again - nasty habit... And for the record, I'm more excited with the upcoming Lotus Notes push support that Apple panned - thank god I don't have to deal with Exchange (outlook isn't bad, but the back end is horrid).
