The YouTube app was great the first year on the original iPhone, but it has never been updated since.
I don't really see what's the problem of having a new modern YouTube app developed by Google instead of the obsolete, non-uninstallable one we have now.
Yeah that is the first thing I check when shopping for new hardware, which one gets had the most profit into the pockets of the manufacturer.
Exactly.
Why are Apple customers so proud of the fact that they overpay for their products?
Would we all see cheaper cell service if carriers pockets weren't being emptied into Apple's coffers? How about iPhone users start giving back to the their fellow citizens by switching to Android, instead of inflicting the cost of these overpriced device on the rest of the cell phone users. Every iPhone sold is a money out of my pocket, by way of higher carrier bills.

Because Android may work for you, but they definitely don't work for all.
I cringe every time I have to use one of these unusable nightmare of a piece of plastic.
1) Can marketing alone really sell 100 million units of a $500 product on such a short period?
And if it's the case, why didn't they run these marketing campaigns 10 years ago? I'm sorry but that doesn't make any sense.
2) Ridiculously overpriced compared to what? It seems to me that people who buy one find it worth the price.
If the stylus is essential and Steve Jobs was wrong, then how do you explain that tablets never took off before, and that the iPad -and its competitors- have sold about 100 million units in just a couple of years?
Switched to Chrome a few months ago and never looked back.
Firefox is still slower than Chrome; I don't know about the rendering, but the UI is a lot snappier with Chrome, even on older (5-6 years) machines.
Firefox new numbering breaks plugins on a regular basis.
I don't really see what's the point in using Firefox anymore.
The solution would be a modular design with upgradability in the core components.
Then consoles would be no different from PCs.
The majority of console owners own PCs too, it's just a different world now.
Only a percentage of console gamers have access to a gaming ready PC. If we broaden the definition to all console owners (meaning casual and mainstream (=non hardcore) gamers) then that number decreases significantly.
Far too often when I tell someone a company name, rather than simply adding ".com" to the end of it, they lazily type in the company name into a Google search and let Google do the rest of the work.
I don't want the address bar to go, but simply adding ".com" to the end of a company name only works for a limited set of companies, in the US. You'll get a better chance at finding a company's website by doing a simple search in Google.

If not, how do you explain that an ebook titled “How To Self Publish On Amazon, Kindle And iBookStore” is available at the Apple iBookStore? http://itunes.apple.com/us/book/how-to-self-publish-on-amazon/id546291491?mt=11
