I thought I would take a minute to explain how my view on Apple has changed over the years:
- Prior to college I had no experience with Apple and do to my immaturity I thought they sucked.
- In college I started working for an eLearning company and was introducted to my first Mac and Final Cut Pro. I found it fabulous... no blue screen of death and it just worked. A start to a beautiful relationship... I'm completely sold that everyone should have a Mac over Windows.
- Got my first iPhone right before the iPhone 3GS came out. Feel in love all over again.
- Started developing iPhone apps using Flash CS5 Packager for iPhone, get one, TheProducer (Lite Edition) approved and in the iTunes App Store.
- I developed a full version of TheProducer and submit it to the iTunes App Store.
- Apple then announces the iPad. I pre-order an iPad. Meanwhile, I'm starting to build an iPad version of TheProducer using Flash CS5.
- I get my iPad and even get TheProducer working on it and within days Apple block Flash (and AIR apps) on the iPhone and iPad.
- 6 email inquiries later, the full version of TheProducer is still "In Review" at Apple and has been since March 15, 2010.
- I lost my temper with Apple:
- I swap to the Google Nexus One and Android 2.2. If I may add, runs Flash and AIR apps really nicely!
- Future outlook... I still think Windows is an inferior product in comparison to Mac OS X, but I don't think I'll be buying an iPhone 4 anytime soon.
BTW... I'm selling my iPad! Can't wait to get my hands on Notion Ink's ADAM!!!
