The Apple Event

Yeah, I understand that shouldn't have to be the case, but I just want my phone and tablet to work consistently, which the iStuff does (most of the time) and my heavy computing and modding is all done on my Mac.

Yeah, I get that. My dissatisfaction with IOS and Apple in general started when I became interested in starting to develop apps for mobile devices.

Apple: pay $99/year and buy a Mac (at least a grand, closer to two grand for anything portable and suitable for development).

Android: Download a free developer kit that integrates with the IDE I already have.

As much as I wouldn't mind having a nice Macbook Pro, I don't have a couple grand lying around to dabble in app development. :p
