  <p>I would agree a lot of the apps should be moved to the App store; but notepad is so basic that it needs to be included but removeable.</p><p><br></p><p>Developers seem to hate doing things when it is new for Windows or Nintendo. They won't take the time to properly develop it properly, they are lazy and just put in something they can do half ass.</p><p><br></p><p>The world won't applaud any company for delaying the release, and then having a limited release. They will be even more trouble than they already are.</p>

  <p>I don't remember MS doing the same thing Paul would like Apple to do. To be honest as a customer I would care less about those kinds of explanations. On another note I'm not concerned at all, if they launch its ok, if they don't its ok too. I don't feel any consumerist axiaty at all. Of course I expect a very good product … that is all. I'll see what I see it.</p><p><br></p><p>One thing I like about Apple is that they have not pumped the thing in anyway whatsoever. They simply said months ago that will be fantastic, they say that over and over … and that is all. Now there are a bunch of people that live out of whatever Apple does without creating value. They provide judgment, critic, rumor, whatever they need to keep the fluff going and people on their channels, even without knowing anything official as the company as not made any official statements of features, they go and scavenge the trash, spend loads of time on twitter …. paparazzi style … creating news not reporting effective news.</p><p><br></p><p>This is in contrast say with MS and Google that they pumped that thing anyway they can to keep being on the news long before they have anything to deliver, conferences, etc etc. Rarely I felt they met the expectations they have created … if ever.</p><p><br></p><p>I find weird some of the things Andrew says. Sometimes he looks like he is trying to find ways to criticize the company. Wether the company fixes his problems quickly, give him new devices as replacements (not refurbs) or even if they go an extra mile giving accessories to execute the trouble. I don't get it, I honestly don't. Mind you I had problems with Apple products too, but in comparison to any other vendor of the kind the balance is quite positive in the range of high end devices, there is little to argue on that regard I think.</p><p><br></p><p>Having said this, the biggest issue I have with Apple is the rising price of its products to the point that its starting to look ridiculous even for its long time users. They cannot listen to people that have no common sense and I think the company is loosing some of that with time altogether. I find it they are pushing the envelope way too much and I'm only concerned that when its customers get fed up and decide to do the switch the company will have a hard time to recover due to the ripple effect that they will not be able to control (lost of trust) …. and only be with a bunch of tech journalists around that never shown much of a common sense about anything really.</p><p><br></p><p><br></p>
