We see this with much of our technology today. Companies deliver far less than they are capable of, presumably for fear that if they delivered a near perfect product early on there would be no market for upgrades later (especially when you actually incentivize the customer to keep the device for two years).

I think a growing number of tech customers are tired of being “milked” in this way.

No cut-and-paste? Give me a break!

About Voices

Along with original content and posts from across the Dow Jones network, this section of AllThingsD includes Must-Reads From Other Web Sites — pieces we’ve read, discussions we’ve followed, stuff we like. Six posts from external sites are included here each weekday, but we only run the headlines. We link to the original sites for the rest. These posts are explicitly labeled, so it’s clear that the content comes from other Web sites, and for clarity’s sake, all outside posts run against a pink background.

We also solicit original full-length posts and accept some unsolicited submissions.
