Keep buying their half-baked cookies and they'll keep thinking it's top-notch and make more. If you stop, maybe THEN they'll finally start getting hunger pangs and ask, "WHYFOR YOU NO FEED ME NO MORE???" and pay attention.

Council or no, ultimately, your DOLLARS can make the difference.
True.. and this is the only way to really fix anything.. but seriously I'm stuck.

So what's my alternatives? Let's see... I purchase the iPhone and support a draconic evil empire that is akin to Windows for the Desktop... thus pretty much devaluing every personal belief I have and tearing apart every fiber of my being...

Or I get a WinMo phone... See above.

Or I get an Android Phone.. which - I don't hate Google near as much as Apple or WinMo, so in this case I won't feel like I need to commit suicide... but I do hate the actual OS. It's like.. Linux done wrong. I don't like the way google took a good framework.. dismantled it, and put it back together with all new parts that IMHO.. suck. (I'm not a Java fan...) Arguably, Google sucks equally bad at supporting their phones too (being just one: Nexus One).

Or I get Maemo... an Operating System that actually feels second nature to me, is powerful, and brings my home computer with me everywhere I go. But, then I deal with lackluster (if not downright crappy) business decisions that directly affect the usefulness of my phone.

So really... tell me: Where am I supposed to take my money to make anybody change anything? I mean.. I do need a cell phone here.. I can't exactly not own one...
