I agree that the kill switch is, as in Apple's case, stupid. But the fact is that they will probably never have to use it. It's there for the just-in-case scenario. Apple has yet to use theirs. The fact still is that Android is still open-source (in which case there will more than likely be re-compiled versions that leave the kill switch out), you can still download and install apps from someplace other than store, you will have a choice from more than one cell carrier, you will have more hardware options, and Steve Jobs is not telling you which applications are ok for you to put on YOUR phone. I could go on, but that's all that I can think of at the moment. I'd say the grass is still WAY greener on the other side. Just my two cents, n00b. I think you’re overlooking some stuff, schmuck.
