Android does the same things if you're willing to create an account as all it needs is the Internet to do this - it has nothing to do with Apple. The only reason Apple has it by default is you've created an account by default, and you're always logged into that account, by default. But Android has had this for years - which is one of the reasons I say that Steve's document is pretty good - but Steve doesn't know Android well. Unfortunately, Steve will never fix his document, which is one thing nospam said that is true as I've emailed Steve in the past this information.
