Then you have to wait for the download every time you open the app.

This is an okay compromise tbh.

(They could offer a super secure option or whatever, I guess)

Why? Don't think of Microsoft as it is now, think of it as it was 22 years ago.

This slightly angers me coming from several attempts to upload legit WP8 apps.

Privacy policies not being "good" enough, no location tracking switch in a "location aware" app, little to no experiences from other developers(typical stackoverflow trouble shooting becoming impossible), worse app approval process than Apple.. the list goes on. This being in a platform which they're trying to push. :(

AFAIK system apks are signed with a special key, that gets special privileges.

iOS IS stagnant.

Windows Phone 8 has a totally different and new paradigm going with merging start screen and "notifications bar" with the live tiles. Rooms with its "all sharing feature". Kids stuff. Lockscreen apps. All of these are a totally new approach to the mobile platform.

I feel the "new Microsoft" is really innovating(i hate that word) atm.

Well that's not what we're talking about here. This is a thing too simple for a patent.

I could probably see many things in iOS/the iPhone worth patenting, but this is not one of them.

I'm not against Apple, I'm against ALL useless patents like this and probably many of Samsungs'.

From: http://www.theverge.com/2012/8/31/3280361/apple-samsung-jury...

"Hogan said he was one of a pair of jurors that served as the de facto technical experts of the nine-person panel."

And:

"Except for my family, it was the high spot of my career," Hogan said about the trial. "You might even say my life." A holder of a patent on video compression himself, he said he recognized that the case represented a "landmark decision," and that he was pleased he'd been selected "because I wanted to be satisfied from my own perspective that this trial was fair, and protected copyrights and intellectual property rights, no matter who they belonged to."

Android Query far down the list as well :/

From what I've done with it, I'll reckon it'll get more used in the near future.

try out nodes.dk perhaps, dunno if they are still looking for iOS devs

That wasn't really a political decision, but a design error. The internal storage is way too small on the Nexus One. The same reason HTC Desire barely could get gingerbread.

I think his thought process was more like "what am I allowed to say" and decided not to take a risk :D

This really is a special case though. HTC made a terrible decision with the amount of internal storage on the Nexus One and Desire/Incredible, so the image wont fit.
