Lifehacker says that perhaps the new iPhone isn't the greatest thing that you can get. Especially not if you would like to be able to use the free software that other people create (which I think is a fabulous thing - there is SO much that's out there beyond what apple releases).
iPhone completely blocks free software. Developers must pay a tax to Apple, who becomes the sole authority over what can and can't be on everyone's phones. iPhone exposes your whereabouts and provides ways for others to track you without your knowledge.
