I am boycotting the iPhone/iPad (I have the open N900), but I don't have any illusions that it will change anything. In a world where 1% of the people create all the innovation, boycotts by innovators are pointless. For the past ~20 years the masses have been effectively subsidizing tinkerers/hackers/developers by buying open PCs even though they didn't really need them; now that has come to an end and it looks painful to those former beneficiaries.
