I'm one of the people who agrees that what Apple is doing is anti-competitive: they shouldn't have the right to dictate what apps run on their phones, and should be required to allow side-loading. But I also think that families definitely have the right to choose which app they use for the group chat, even if it's only available on one platform. You separated yourself from your mother, because you don't agree with Apple. Put like that, maybe you can pick yourself up a cheap iPod Touch and say hi? It's Mother's Day tomorrow, I'm sure she'd like it.
