Ralf Rottmann at Gizmodo is a perfect example of a loyal Apple user driven away by Apple’s limitations in iOS:

In fact, I think iOS has reached a point where usability starts to significantly decrease due to the many workarounds that Apple has introduced. All of these just to prevent exposing a paradigm like a file system or allowing apps to securely talk to each others. There is a better way of doing this. Apples knows about it but simply keeps ignoring the issues.

This piece really hits home with me. An Apple fan finally fed up with arbitrary limitations in iOS. Like Ralf, I’ve tried many Android devices, only to return to my trusty iPhone and iPad. The Nexus 4, even without LTE, sounds very promising. If only they had some for sale.
