That obnoxious shit is one reason why I won't buy one. It's like a Usenet sig still being used 20 years after they became uncool.
You know that signature can easily be customized or removed - it's just that nobody does it.

#25+1 for the "powered by" acquisition channel. 1) Add "powered by" 2) Gain from brand awareness / leads it generates 3) Also gain by selling a higher tiered "white-label" plan that large co's can upgrade to if they want to remove your powered by branding. Even if it fails as an acquisition channel, it can still succeed at encouraging an upsell path.
It makes an effective freemium model. Give all users all (or most) features for free. Then the ones that want to remove the branding will pay for that privilege. This way, the smaller free users are essentially paying for the service through promoting your brand. The users that don't want to promote you have a way to do it and will you pay you for that.
