My flight experiences have been pleasant and quick, and commuting by car or boat is simply not an option for the vast majority of business fliers like me.

You are scarred by some kind of horrible experience and obviously cannot speak for everyone. Airlines can be the cheapest/quickest or quite luxurious/quickest way to get wherever you want to go.

Him saying that android devs care more about bells and whistles (like tethering) is the cause of the phone calls not working is the same thing as blaming tethering.

HTC didn't make the OS, and yet you are blaming the Android OS for this problem. You are blaming the open source community of focusing on making apps which is somehow hurting the quality of the actual phone capabilities.

HTC's track record is actually pretty great; They make plenty of customized phones, and they did wonders in making a usable front-end of the microsoft OS.

Yet none of this really matters, the point is that this guy made a silly comment. It is not development of apps that caused this problem, and it wasn't trying to catch up to the iPhone either.

Sometimes shit happens, and it's how companies handle that shit that matters. Apples track record is really crapping up, especially when they told users that they were holding their phones wrong because of the shitty antenna design.

Tethering is an almost effortless addition to a phone that already uses the internet. Apps are for the most part developed by 3rd party members that never even contributed to the core functionality of the phone to begin with.

To blame this problem on the development of apps and tethering is silly, and I think the only reason you mentioned tethering was because that's one thing the iPhone lacks.
