Apple needs more competition in the mobile arena. We won’t get that if what may prove to be a useful new technology is bottled up for its exclusive use.

And though I’m sure it’s not your imagination, providing links to pages where a few people have similar problems doesn’t make it a real problem. I could just as well solicit thousands of people to comment about how they aren’t having these “bugs.”

Again, not trying to make light of your situation, or somehow claim them to not be real problems. But unless you can point to a reproducible bug via steps (Do this and this, and this will happen), then it is most likely a problem with your setup. That is not to say that it is your fault, but try looking at your software before you blame the system.

Just my 2-cents
