You're talking about a country with a per capita income of only $2,600. Clearly only the top 1% buy these phones and thus the expensive apps.

This may be true a lot, but not always. AT&T Live support, for example, presents you with a login page before the chat. You have to fill out the form; the phone number, the name its registered under, the last 4 digits of social security, and a dropdown box with type of issue. That shaves a lot of this work off of the overall time.

#3 is false. Apple 2005 "purple" prototype shows it did not copy Sony

Citation needed. Meanwhile, the App Store has given out over 25 Billion downloads, more than Android. I think you mean a lot of the download statistics in the Android store are skewed by piracy and freeware.

Easy, they're called provisioning profiles.

Mythbusters found a lot of the state of the art stuff to be breakable, but for the fingerprint unlock they needed to actually get someone's fingerprint first.

iOS developers most certainly can develop and run apps on their own devices, the only limitation is sometimes Apple may reject your app for their store.

iOS also supports external (dock connector or Bluetooth) game controllers too.

MicroUSB is very different and not applicable for this case. USB is 4 pins while the new one is 19 pins. Those other pins are for video out, audio out, car docks, etc. Doing it all over USB would require a more complicated (and expensive) circuitry on whatever it's plugged into, Apple's way is better.

Apple already explained to developers how to close the hole, with in-App receipts. Also, it's closed in iOS 6

Once you disable certain obnoxious subreddits in your profile, the site actually becomes wonderful. Just turn off /r/atheism, /r/adviceanimals, and maybe /r/politics, and add the many TV/movie related and other cultural subreddits and you have a nice party.

They did a site redesign that made functionality a lot worse for many people. At the same time, the algorithm was aggravating the users since it heavily-favored the high-karma users' posts and nobody else made it to the front page. Add a right-wing bloc of users called the Digg Patriots who tried dominating the discussions and downvoting what they didn't like, and many left; plenty to Reddit.

And yet Reddit is extremely popular

From what I read, using the iPhone Configuration Utility app for Enterprise users, you can disable WiFi and bluetooth in the provisioning.

As Yaz wrote above:
iOS devices have AES 256 encryption baked right into the hardware inside the DMA path between flash storage and the main system memory. It's always enabled, and can't be disabled by users, administrators, or anyone else. No custom kernel modules required -- XNU already has built-in AES 256 support, and the platform already implements it for each and every device.
