Have to hand it to Apple.. in one way it sucks that they do this, but on
the other hand, they need to protect what makes them superior... aside
from the iPhone, the iTunes integration is a must... even if a superior
phone came out to the iPhone, if it doesn't integrate with my 5+ years
of music from iTunes, I won't use it.
