This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
All storage devices should be able to store any grouping of 0s and 1s. I should not be limited by my manufacturer, my carrier, nor my download url by what things the device I own can have stored on it.
I don't know why this wasn't a bigger deal when the iphone came out...
They are able to store anything. I can download Android app’s on my iPhone. Installing and running is a different question though. And of course a device is limited in what it can run by architecture and operating system. Whether they should be limited by manufacturer or carrier policy is another question though.
