Nobody got my point. I was not talking about apps. My point is that iphone OS can only be used with iphone hardware. That is what is going to kill them. Very soon there will be androids on every carrier and made by many different hardware vendors. Iphone might sell the most hardware but android will sell the most software. Apple had the best products before windows came out. Apple will continue to be a smaller company because of their business practices. If Apple had sold the iphone software they would have all the iphone sales they have now plus the OS sales to other hardware vendors.

MS makes a very bad cell phone OS and apple just recently passed them. Apple continues to make bad decisions. They will never make it in the Chineese market because they won't change the way they do business to acomadate how Chineese use cell phones. The list goes on.

Apple is a successful company but they will never be a Google or Microsoft.
