wtf are you going on about?
almost all smartphones (symbian, and especially windows mobile) are open to third-party applications. in the case of windows mobile, it is VERY open, with most phones unlocked (tier-1) to run any application --- almost too open, from a security policy standpoint.
and if your complaining about data network, EVDO (from sprint) is unlimited and only 10-$15 a month. and it's fast, very fast.
what apple is doing has nothing to do with the rhetoric your pushing out. it's their decision, and i predict they will open up the SDK due to demand eventually...
