I was expecting more blow by boo coverage for the original post. Apple really had done a lot to smooth the process for app developers. Apps are getting review much quicker than before. With in-app purchases you can sell additional features

Let's say Microsoft and Apple can only go after the handset makers for whatever reason, and they win. Thst means handset makes will drop Android for WP7 or MeeGo. Now that Google has is own cell phone manufacturer, it will still be able to

I would be interested to hear other people think are some examples of good software experiences that cover the whole curve. Maybe Lion could be an example because of Launchpad, but not Snow Leopard.
