Yes, if you're a fan of what Apple does and how it does it, this isn't going to draw you away from the fold. But there's no turning those people, who are not only too far locked into the eco-system to move, but if they found anything as good as Apple would probably turn their noses up at it and call it a copy.

Nevertheless, there are a lot of us who don't buy Apple products in general, and for those of us looking for something versatile, There's rarely been anything that gets so much right.

Still, there's every chance this goes the way of the Zune I guess. I'm just glad in this case I was able to get a hold of one before M$ gave up on it.

Just IMO though.
