#3Ok maybe the Indian govt can force Android phone manufacturers to pre install it's app store, how is this going to play out on iPhones? Are we going to see a ban on iPhones in India?

#4When did Apple open up to alternative App stores and side loading?
I must've missed this, because this was my number 1 reason to avoid Apple products. Not that I'd buy any, reasons 2 through 10 are still deal breakers.
