And on the other side:

Bob: Heya Tom, it's Bob from the office down the hall! Good to see you, buddy... how've ya been? Look at my awesome iPhone. It can read email and stream Pandora at the same time.

Tom: Uh, no it can't.

Bob: Yeah, well look at this boob app.

Tom: Again, not possible.

Bob: Oh yeah. Because of Apple's strange policies towards the app store, I can't run two applications at once or make my own decisions on what content I find appropriate. And what is and is not appropriate can change without any advanced notice to me, meaning that if an inappropriate app has a bug in it, the developer will never be allowed to fix it for me.

Tom: So why did you buy that piece of junk again?

Bob: Because it was cheaper than the Nexus One.

Tom: You get what you pay for.

Being a playwright is fun.
