Personally, I like learning new things on my iPhone and iPad. If I had to learn to use my iPhone and iPad today,i probably would have a few problems. I'm glad I started from the first iPhone and iPad. Changing worth the times is good.

At 74 I don't like having to retrain motor memory with every major update. I understand both the marketing and the geeky and perfectionist incentives for companies to do that, but I don't like it. For my taste, Apple overdoes it. Also, by continuing to pile on new features, they continue to make their mobile devices more complex, and that means less intuitive.
Jim, you're a physician. Physicians, I imagine, have an unusually high tolerance for technical change. So do the kids who design for tech companies. I've found that as I age, I value consistency and predictability over novelty. Difference strokes. Different target audiences.
