How is apple overpriced junk? Apple products are likely overpriced but they are *FAR* from junk. They do exactly what Apple says they will do with an easy, intuitive interface. They are a (mostly) closed system but that means more security from malware (in the sense that it is much less likely that a user will download/install it in the first place).

Contrast that with Android. For support, you not only have to look at the OS generally - you have to look at the customizations and support offered on the specific model (or at least the specific handset manufacturer). I have friends on their second or third Android phone due to major issues with support of their previous one(s).
