PS- one thing that frustrates me about apple products is every one I've bought works amazingly until like 3 hours after the warrenty expires and then they completely shit the bed.

PSS-I also support the notion of hiring a non philipino programmer

What's wrong with a Filipino programmer? Code is code. All that matters is that it works. Are you upset that the person writing your code may not have the same color skin as you?

Yes metsfan, you hit the nail stright on the head, anyone that knows anything would agree that the Philipino, (notice the Ph) is considerably insuperior in terms of programming when compared to other programmers amidst the vast racial spectrum.

Sorry crazy Irish dude, but anyone that knows anything would use the correct term 'Filipino' for a native of The Philippines. Deriving from the Spanish 'Felipe' it is why the letter F is used, although ironically in the alphabet of that country the letter F doesn't exist (and they refer to themselves as Pilipino/Pilipina).

Sorry to deviate from the Apple debate. Back to it lads.

And you are calling me an Apple fanboy? That is hilarious. And they are a proven brand, you cannot argue about that.

Wow, now you are comparing people who own Apple products to the lowest of insects. You amaze me even more.

Dako wrote:Yes, exactly that. But Apple didn't introduce this fashion wave. People did so. They decided having Apple products is cool. Apple just made their product that suited needs of a lot of people. Have you ever seen one adv made by Apple that promotes Apple products as fashionable?

Dako wrote:If you want to use your Apple phone as you like - jailbreak it and do so. When you buy Apple software you buy it on some specific terms. No one stops you from breaking them, but it is their terms and they can set them how they like because they created that product. Does it make them a bad guys? It makes them smart guys at least.

Dako wrote:To be honest after rereading your posts I came a certain conclusions.

• You way of arguing humiliates you (comparing ~100 mln people to insects and calling them morons).
• You do not hold any information or numbers about mobile market or Apple products.
• All your sentences were formed on your wounded customer personality.

All those points signaled me that you are not a competent person on this question and I am not willing to move this conversation even more off topic and argue with you anymore. So go along and spread your ideas that Apple is a shit company. I will not interfere because your influence is on the level of a beggar doomsday prophet.

I'm not calling you one, but if the shoe fits...

Dako, here's some reading for you. Please read thoroughly and only respond when you have absorbed all the information within these articles:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analogy
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Argumentum_ad_populum

Please, please do not respond before you have read these articles, because it's getting embarrassing when this is the 3rd post I have to write to get the message through.

I'm not sure if you're naive or just... of course Apple introduced it. Have you ever heard of marketing? Brand development?

Except that Apple doesn't allow jailbreaking now. They disable jailbroken devices by installing malware in their phones that detects jailbreaking.

Is that an ethical business practice? A little hint: no, it's not.

Ooh, hit a nerve, did I?

Go ahead, get me banned.

All it does to your device is it voids the warranty. it's the risk you take. However, all you have to do to erase all traces of the jailbreak is plug the phone in, and hit "reset device". Done. Clean as a whistle. Warranty is back to normal.

Who's talking about prosecution? I haven't mentioned prosecution anywhere.

Of course they can't prosecute you... what they can do is disable your phone/tablet from working at all the next time you update it. So yeah, good luck with that.

They can't do that either. Jailbreaking is perfectly legal with the only repercussions being a voided warranty.

Do I need to spell it out for you?

I'm saying they are doing that right now. If you jailbreak your phone or ipad and update the os, your phone/ipad will stop working.

your source please? i have tons of friends who jailbroke their iphones.. nothing has happened to them! Might be a European thing....

QoH wrote:Natty, you just changed what you've been saying. First you say your phone will stop working, then you say all you have to do us jailbreak it again... A process that takes less than 5 minutes. So what, you take 5 mins out of your day once every 6 months to re-jailbreak the thing? Big deal.
