i agree with you, it makes perfect business sense to have an exclusive deal with AT&T if it failed they wouldn't be getting the bill. But for developers that want to invest in the iphone for software or even just gaming platform ex. EA it wont make much sense since their market is still very limited vs. an open market.

aristokrat - It's not hard to build your own Mac. Just build a cheap computer with a core2 duo and "find" a copy of OSX online. It's pretty easy, and will make you wonder what exactly you're paying for when you buy a "real" mac.

Oh, I'm perfectly aware of the OSx86 projects, and have a frankenmac from the G4 generation that is an awesome construction of pieces. I just want to be able to build a mac that I will be able to upgrade with various OS versions without having to continually re-patch each update. Besides, I don't have the money to make the computer I really want, so I just lurk ebay waiting for the right opportunity.

And I don't really think Macs are all that overpriced, I just want more creative control in my projects and enjoy creating my own systems.

And I'll give a shit about the wonderful graphics for about 6 seconds. I'm playing these games on trains. I couldn't care about graphics in that environment.

"...we take solace in the fact that for once we won't have to upgrade our video card just to play with his latest toy."

No, you just have to buy an expensive and overrated phone and switch to AT&T after paying your old provider an early termination fee.
