What features exactly are so integrated that a 3rd party developer could not mimmick? The address book is accessable by any program. That is all I can think of.
Apple is just doing what it has to do to compete. And honestly, for the iApps I use, there is no alternative which I find better, if there was, I would probably use it.
If Apple was a dominant force in the market, at the caliber of Microsoft, then the maybe the iApps would seem a bit monopolistic. But Apple doesn't try to force you to use them and they can be uninstalled if you don't want them, unlike IE and as WMP.
