Hmmm...but it's Apple's phone, Dave. And, like CFBuilder and Adobe, they can do anything they like with it. Restricting builders and suppliers has always been the hallmark of Apple, for good and for ill to the company and their customers.
You seem to have a very strong opinion about Apple's handling of their product, but you don't allow the same for others who have a very strong opinion about Adobe's handling of CFBuilder. You're not being very rational about this situation, Dave. Apple should only do what is in the best interest of Apple. They're not in business for their customers, but only what they can get from them.

The strict control of the App Store does suck. The fact that you can't have a native Google Voice app because it might affect AT&Ts profit sucks. The fact that Apple can remove or block apps from the App Store for any reason they like sucks. "The iPhone vision of the mobile Internet's future omits controversy, sex, and freedom, but includes strict limits on who can know what and who can say what. It's a sterile Disney-fied walled garden surrounded by sharp-toothed lawyers.
