I'm not sure I agree with you about the high-end phone statement. I 
think Samsung has some Android products that can (and do) compete at 
that level. As for Windows phones, Microsoft is currently in the process 
of shooting themselves in the foot where the mobile market is concerned. 
Or perhaps I should say, they already did shoot themselves in the foot. 
Whether they can recover from the mistakes remains to be seen.

I fully agree about the closed platform stuff; it's the main reason I 
don't own an apple product actually. That and their "you don't need to 
know how this works" mentality. I don't like being treated like a 
technical ignoramus. Development is a real hastle too; you can't just 
decide to whip up an app to do something, install it, and go.
