Look dudes. Its one thing when your laptop crashes - its a whole other thing when your phone falls apart (right guys who own a brick?). Apple doesn't and shouldn't open its users up to nefarious persons who want to toy with their revolutionary device. Call me crazy but there are a lot of people out there that would love to send a virus right into that thing. For me, their stance is called STANDING BEHIND THE PRODUCT. Moreover, there are a lot of fools out there who will download anything that looks interesting that might screw up the device. (It's the first one give them a break). The costs of responding to thousands of phone calls or store visits from morons who don't know the limits can't be calculated. It's good business to control what goes in.
BMW says use UNLEADED gas only. That doesn't mean you can't convert your vehicle to run on ethanol... yet it does mean that BMW won't honor the warranty any longer once you rip the engine apart. Tinker away - just don't expect Apple to be your mommy and fix it for you once you break it.
