The more I see things like iPad, iPhone, iTunes, etc. coming, the more I am motivated to continue using, developing and promoting Free Software. This world needs people who care about freedom in general and digital freedom in particular. And we are those people.

that's the right attitude! :-)
So now we just need a Nokia pad900, with a Debian base and GUI in Qt.
I know a bit about how Appels review process for the App Store works. Pure censorship.
And you aren't allowed to run any software on your own device.
I love your approach to this. You are spot-on with your assessment of the problem and the solution. You KDE developers are my heroes! Seriously.
But Apple develops lots of open source (and free) software as well.
Is it so bad that one company really push technology to open as well and supports as well open standards (epub etc)?
Of course it would be great if all* the software would be open source.
*Not all can be open source, like watermarking algorithms what are protecting our files etc.
ps. If you find out how to make watermarking what can not be removed from photos even with resizing or cropping to 4x4px size with open source algorithms. Tell that for others.
iCare ;)!
I hope to see more TabletPC because I like the idea but I don't like the way Apple close things.
