> I don't believe Apple is doing this out of altruism for users or developers. I think they are honestly going after Google, Microsoft, Dropbox, et al. at the same time. And the most effective way to do that is to have...80 million users on day one. Isn’t it beautiful when a company’s self-interests are aligned with their customer’s? They get users and money, I get an updated OS and new features on my old phone. Everybody wins! (iCloud useless? you might think that documents on iCloud is useless, but iCloud is also the brand name for email service, contacts, calendar, photos sync and automated daily backups. seems hardly useless to me.)
