I totally agree with you. We're developing an app in parallel for BB, Android and iPhone, and BB is clearly the one that costs the most to develop. Being stuck with J2ME, stupid APIs that aren't clear, lack of feature, total lack of documentation or any community that might help, and really inconsistent behavior between each device are some of the aspects that make my days miserable. It's getting worse when you try to stay compliant with 4.6 while supporting touch screen enabled devices (Torch, Storm). However, it seems that low-end BBs are very popular in emerging countries. So we'll keep struggling with RIM for a while I guess.

That's what I was wondering. What can be 5 TB of personal data? My "real" worhtwhile data (meaning things that I can't get back if something wrong happens) takes like 30 GB. And 29.5 of this are pictures. But things like downloaded movies or MP3 (a certain chunk of it being illegally acquired) are not worth backing up using such a complicated scheme. My house burn and I lose some MP3 I bought on iTunes? No big deal, there would be alot of other things more important that would bug me (like, you know, my house).
