I wonder why this is. The culture of those who would buy Apple, would by apps? $100/y dev fee ensures greater quality apps than Androids 1-time $25? iPhone maturity?

In a nutshell? Macs and iPhones and iPod Touches and iPads are expensive. Their owners have more disposable income, which is why they end up with a $650 iPad instead of a $250 netbook. It's also why they buy more apps.
