I'll just note that what the article fails to consider is that, by allowing third-party devices to continue to sync via iTunes, Apple is opening itself up to a whole host of tech support query issues. Users will request help for syncing non-supported devices, in many cases lying about what device they are using to get tech support, and cost APple valuable time and resources on wild goose chases. Regardless of how anyone feels about other aspects, the decision is an understandable and logical one. I do understand the arguments against it as well, but the picture is not as black as Palm wants to portray it. Josh de Lioncourt .my other mail provider is an owl.
