I doubt there's anything to stop someone writing a bluetooth program to simulate an iPhone and communicate with one, and potentially be malicious. I believe Apple chooses not to support standard protocols purely because the ability to communicate with other devices reduces the need for a mac and an ipod and an iphone. I quote Nikon above ...

You could equally use the wifi capability or even the phone signal to spread malicious software but it' not easy or widespread. |

You can only put your developed Apps on a few phones with that, to get wide-spread distribution you would need to submit it to Apple to get them to Certify it and then put it in the Store. This is great as it adds to security. However the other side of the coin. I can download the Android SDK for free, write an app thats useful only to me and my friends and guve them the program file to install on their Android phones as long as they have chosen to let non Marketplace apps be installed. This adds to the functionality of the platform. The decision is what is more important to you. Freedom to do what you want with the device you purchased, or the safety of someone else deciding what is good for you.

My iPhone is the only phone where I've managed to use every function. It plays music through my sena Bluetooth on my bike, in my car, and synchs everything with my iPad. I certainly wouldn't buy the latest unless my two died, but do love the simplicity and logic of apple stuff. It is expensive though.

I know where you're coming from btw. I have developed two games for Android (game developer by trade ... if you can call it that). Will post up some links if you're interested. Have you made any apps?

I don't drink cider. I'm just not compatible with it.

It's not the "walled garden", the lack of functionality, the corporate branding or any other reason put forward so far that prevents me from buying anything Apple - it's the fact that 99% of Apple fan-bois are smug to55ers and I don't want to be perceived by the general public and my friends as being the same. I can be my own brand of to55er without needing some crap piece of electronic hardware to help me along.
