Now, if only Ubuntu Mobile could have similar progress, the open source field can really heat up, and have a good chance of competing with iPhone. I mean, the iPhone is fine in itself, but Apple's repressive control over its software/hardware is just a shoddy practice. Even this SDK that they're releasing for the iPhone doesn't really give developers incentive to join. In reality, Apple can simply publish its API's openly, and let the devs freely exploit the power of the iPhone. But no, Steve's seeing even the applications as another revenue-generating unit that he wants to turn into an iTunes-style system. I for one look forward to the day that mobile operating systems will be the way they are in computers, where you can choose what to run (i.e. Windows or Linux?). It'd be a win-win for the consumer if they could simply load an ISO image onto an SD card, and then set up the OS straight on the phone, from the SD card.

I am also waiting for the same said by chevyrulz0991 : your friend has never ventured into the preference panel in itunes then. I actually believe its right there on the ipod/itunes home screen... "Manually sync music" It would actually be even better is I could download music from iTunes while on the go like my brother does on his Mogul "with whatever is the name of the app that he uses".
