Well... we'll see.  I like my iPhone because of the way it looks and how easily it syncs with my mac.  I'm super idealistic in terms of where and how I buy novels, where I buy groceries, where I go out to eat, and what places I go on vacation, and quite honestly, I just want something in my life that I don't have to feel bad about doing.  My iPhone was a college graduation gift -- I didn't ask for it, my father just gave it to me (tough life, right?) -- and I don't really have the money to be idealistic about this sort of thing.  With that being said, I do like the device, even if the DRM policies with music are wack (note: I don't buy music from iTunes, so I kind of negate that.)

Danielle - Sry I came off as a totalitarian lol... I think you missed the main point of my rebuttal which was the perceived safety that one has in the Apple "inner circle."  I can see now why people can be such a fan of these "big brother" style governments... under the dragon's wing, it is always warm.  I'm sorry you can't respect me because of what kind of cell phone I use, though.

David - It is stupid that they banned the Kama Sutra, but maybe it'll get fixed in the future?  If not, just don't give Apple more of your money!  Vote with the pocket book.  A way to get DRM-free music is to buy it in physical form and just rip it yourself.  It can easily be converted into iTunes, and you can even get the same cover art that is on the album.  It costs a little more, but in a world where you just posted how much more artists make by celling cds, you should be okay with that, no?
