      Looking forward to Apple taking a hit in the market...

      Such an event would almost certainly force them to open-up their iOS a little and allow iXXXX devices to interact with non-apple devices and software. It may even push their prices down to realistic levels

      Then I might consider buying one myself!

            Apple has it's own OS. Yes it has it;'s own brain, but it doesn;tmean that apple is intelligent. they're only have common sense. :)))))

They do not know how to use it... They just think it is good because it is pricey.. They do not know that the bluetooth does not transfer data.. Do not know how to activate or even create an apple id.. Do not even know how to upgrade the os or even what the advantages of the new os... They just like upgrading because the number is greater... They never used Siri (wonder if they know what that is).. Do not know how to hard reset... in short do not know anything apart from making a phone call.

                                ... thats the difference right there..rather than admitting what other good products are on the market, or what other good features the competitor has, your ego puts a block on your common sense.

                                ... the only thing non-sense here is your inability to respond like mature human being rather than a 4 yr old child.

                                    SAMSUNG GALAXY S3, 13 Dec 2012Ok..ok...then still why so?because most people who buy andoirds dont even know what they are buying... iphone users know wat they want. they are specficically wanting a quality product that they are aware of. most people i know that have androids are people who just needed to upgrade their phone, and because 15 out of 16 options are useless junk android phones running 3.0 or 3.2, they get it just for calling and texting. thats why most people on android dont even have data plans.. they dont buy them because android are superior phones, they buy them cause they're eye candy.

                                    thats they difference between wp and iOS users vs android users. no body picks up an WP phone cause thats the choice they were left with.. no body picks an iphone cause it was thier only choice..
                                    its a quality vs. quantity story...

If IOS came on a 100 Euro phone nobody would buy it because it wouldn't be "value for money" but a joke. But since the iPhone costs $1000 people buy it because "expensive = good". Anyway, if Apple's shares go down further 20% they will be at the "death cross" point which is the term that brokers use for a point where it's almost impossible to recover.
