I just recently purchased an iPad and I was wondering why Apple is so restrictive over what I can do with it? Why do all downloadable apps have to be preselected and only downloadable through the App Store? Why can't I download whatever I want? I don't need a babysitter! Why do they approve of tons of useless chicken scratch and deny all the great, worthwhile apps?:mad:
Also, why can't I jailbreak? I gave Apple my money already so why does Apple care about what I do with my iPad?

Not a chance I am going to get sucked into this discussion one more time.

No one listens to me anyway; I have an attitude problem.

Blah blah blah blah blah. Get another tablet from HP or Dell and move on.

We dealt with this junk all the time on BlackBerry Forums. It actually became a matter of routine for the regulars to publicly humiliate the trolls. Sort of like Dog-Pile-Friday on FJRForums.

Honestly, these are all things you should have looked into before making your purchase.
