I don't know much about hardware support from other manufacturers, but Apple's is much better than you give it credit for. No receipt? no problem. Cracked lens? Shattered glass? they'll give you a new handset across the counter without any problems, as long as it's within 1 year of the purchase date. Can't say I've…

bottom line is:

Your figure for a cost per unit at $8 does not show the full story. iOS and apple services have been built up over 20 years of R&D and countless millions.

the autonomous maybach is a great idea for a future take on the classic Cinderella story!

obvious troll is obvious.

I have an iPhone 3G. Its running iOS 3.1.2 - because it can't run anything newer, also I turn 3G off unless I need it, or the battery drains exceptionally fast (this is with a brand new replacement battery).

that black haired one in the passenger seat with the gap in her teeth looks like she knows how to have a good time.

I have an iPhone 3G as well - been using it for almost 3 years (bought it out of contract in christmas 2008).

reminds me of the shows of patriotism that you often see in countries like China and Russia.
