Oh come on! As if you would be handcuffed by using a iOS device. Think about all those viruses and all those people who are not IT-guys, they don't need this complicated "you can do everything but you need to read a bunch of books before"-thing.

It is simple: Just make it easy and iOS is easy. There is one AppStore not 7 like on the Android. There are iOS updates for the newest devices not like Android for those who are the chosen ones. I could go on and on.

If you want crappy software and hardware back then please go and support those crappy software and hardware makers. I will stick to simpleness and convenience.

So you prefer it that apple can reject any app at will?

Yes if they think your App has errors and is not self explaining or working properly it is ok to reject your App.

Is it ok that you can only develop for the Playstation if you are a game development studio? Yes I think so too.

You're not a fan of the relatively low barrier to entry on the WiiWare, Xbox Live Arcade, and Steam platforms? You don't enjoy relatively new people creating games without large war chests or corporate backing? That's too bad. :c
