I doubt one or more high profile developers are going to make a
difference; the question will more likely be whether apple users are
happy with what they're spoonfed or not. In the first case, apple will
keep making lots of cash, and will keep up with the emperor's
crazyness. In the second case they'll see the emperor is naked. THAT
is going to be pretty :-)
