Heh! Was thinking the same thing, but had refrained till this post. I concur: Supporting crappy iPads or Nokia, or what have you is hardly of interest on this list. IMHO, this is true even if the tools used for such support are FOSS. There is a fine line here, again IMHO. FOSS on a proprietary platform is maybe still worth supporting, FOSS that works around barriers set up by scheming proprietary companies is much more more meh. Take it elsewhere to some fanboi list, IMHO.
