What are you talking about? Apple has been caught making their products slower and unusable as they get older. They are designed not to last in every aspect.

  > Apple has been caught making their products slower and unusable as they get older. That's FUD. Apple was indeed "caught" doing that, in one very specific and generally customer-friendly sense. Apple throttled the phone CPU as the battery aged to avoid spikes that could cause the phone to die. When people complained about it, they introduced a toggle to allow that behavior to be disabled. Broadly speaking, Apple has had an excellent record relative to the rest of the industry. They provide day of release OS updates for years-old devices, they have shipped major new releases which have actually improved performance on older devices, and they will often block new features on older devices when those features are likely to cause severe performance degradation.

  You mean clocking down the processor to reduce power draw from the batter, increasing the lifespan of the device...
