I think my biggest problem with them is the product turnover rate is ridiculous. My iPod touch was fine up until Apple introduced new operating systems every 5 days.

I understand it's a cycle of continuous improvement but it kinda screws some people over when they can't buy a new product every year. Then again the majority of Apple's consumer base is willing to do so.

I can see that. This is my second iphone and I would get another. It is good for what it is but I wouldn't want to use an ipad or my iphone as a personal computer.

That's why I really can't justify buying a tablet.

Love my iPad, but it sucks for doing anything real work wise. Entertainment? It's got that covered. Work? Not so much even with the bluetooth keyboard. I bought a $800 portable internet/movie/gaming device.
