looks like you have done some...Hi Hussain Mahmood,<br /><br />looks like you have done some research to defend Apple (classic Stockholm Syndrome) before replying to few of my points, I applaud that but I'm sorry that you took the article so literary. <br /><br />1. I said no Angry Birds in Bahrain and you quickly Google it? That still doesn't mean Bahrain store is better than US store. So you didn't defend that point.<br /><br />2. My Point wasn't buying music, who buys music anyways, we all download them for free from Mediafire which you still cannot do this on your iPhone without ITunes. So you didn't defend that point.<br /><br />3. Of course there is an adapter, there is an adapter for everything, how else can Apple make more money out of you guys? Creating adapters to everything so you can pay for stuff that suppose to be free. Not only the products itself cost fortune but they make you so cling to it you buy all the accessories. <br /><br /><br />4. No, I don't know any people who carry extra batteries with them but I do know A LOT of people (myself included) whom their battery died after extensive charging and we couldn't replace it. <br /><br />Man how come you trust Apple so much if they don't trust you.<br /><br />The only reason I replied to you is because you said my article is not credible. Or else I would have taken your comment as positive.Hussein Nasserhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18310476423554125845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5674879503126200888.post-42791036684990813472012-01-05T07:49:24.203-08:002012-01-05T07:49:24.203-08:00Maybe a little research would give your article so...Maybe a little research would give your article some credibility.<br /><br />1. Angry Birds is available on Bahrain store.<br />2. You can buy music from other stores. There is no DRM restrictions nowadays so music bought from Amazon can be played on an iPhone.<br />3. Micro USB adapter http://store.apple.com/uk/product/MD099ZM/A<br />4. User replaceable batteries were relevant when batteries used to die after a few hours. How many people do you know have extra batteries, yourself included?Hussain Mahmoodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11027870503581690768noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5674879503126200888.post-69182279226528757522012-01-05T07:05:41.636-08:002012-01-05T07:05:41.636-08:00Hussein, do I detect some frustration?

The only way you get such a slick package is by end-to-end control of hardware, software and media.... and that comes at the costs you mentioned - my bro in Montreal sent me iTunes gift I cannot get in London - never mind the steep market value USers can afford but not ROWers. I made a career of remedying American arrogance abroad, learned from escaping French arrogance as a teen, and I'm afrad the Brits joined in in Apple's case (Jon Ives was just knighted on behalf of HM's serfs). I'm afraid Amazon, Google or Microsoft (in alpha order) are no better, so the only escape in DIY heaven in Open Source, which is fine for talented geeks like you (pls. take that as a compliment) but not for the general public.Andrew Zolnai Bloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14579698318895235779noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5674879503126200888.post-67403916287972128562012-01-05T06:04:28.064-08:002012-01-05T06:04:28.064-08:00Each user is waiting for the jailbreak, but they d...Each user is waiting for the jailbreak, but they do not recognize.
