When they make their name finding 'the next big thing', they have to continue the hunt to maintain the credibility... Trashing the thing they helped make popular only adds to the mystic that they know what's coming around the bend.

Let them revolt to sub-par hardware and a lessened user experience. My guess is that many of these folks like to make a big spectacle of their ruffled feathers and do it for the ad impressions more than out of some misguided sense of justice. If this is how they react when the learn what the rest of us already knew (omg Apple isn't perfect!), then peace out, Nancies.

Or it could be the iPhone is fine as is, and they're looking for the next thing.

They tried with the iPod but they're still looking

"Revolt" doesn't imply "leaving amiably to check out an ostensibly better solution" :)

In the states the only choice is to jump to T-Mobile if you want to just swap carriers. Hardly a choice.

AT&T hasn't gotten any worse in my opinion. All these guys jumping ship knew what they were getting into.
