Yep, I would say you hit the mark exactly. I'm actually probably a rare
breed, I much prefer the mac for my desktop platform, but for the
mobile device, I prefer android. I might consider going back to IOS if
Apple ever lifts any of their restrictions, but that's not likely to
happen.

Well, this is how I see it. Apple is just, well, Apple. They feel
that iOS shouldn't be a computer operating system. After all, your
phone, usually isn't your computer. The mac has a file manager and
everything else, as you know, and can be added to with any software you
want. Android is android though, and better for people that want full
access.

That's certainly true about windows phone 8 and blackberry, but if
you have not tried the newest version of android, you might be
pleasantly surprised. The biggest problem I have with IOS is that it
does not do basic things that other operating systems do, such as file
management. Also, Apple insists on using nonstandard proprietary
connectors, and, unless you jail break it, you can only install
applications Apple approves. Personally, I have a problem with someone
else deciding what I can and cannot install on a device I have
purchased. Android is different, but the newest version is just as
accessible as IOS I would say. I use it on a daily basis for phone
calls, messaging, playing music, listening to radio stations,
identifying things with the camera, and listening to books.

Right exactly, and for visually impaired people, iOS is the
preferred platform, while there are others out there, they are not
nearly as accessible.

An interesting article and I agree with some of what it says. In
some ways, Apple has developed a standard for itself that is very high,
and now that some of their features are in other devices, some people
could lose interest. On the other hand, the sales will tell the final
story. As long as Apple is happy with their sales, they will continue
to do what they are doing, and why not. If it is selling, why not
continue it.
Original message:
A couple of people have been asking about IOS 7 and related
topics so thought perhaps this article may shed some light.
