Palm might have the longest experience, but RIMM arguably has the most, and Apple possibly has the best.

"For instance you buy a PC and you start using windows, you stuck with it for a long time in most cases. You use it because you like it."

WRONG.

I use Windows because it's what my employer puts in front of me and supports. I do not like it. I tolerate it. I am even pretty good at using it. But I do not like it. It gets in the way of what I want to do. I used to like Excel a lot for its capabilities and its power, but even it has its own idea of what I "should" do which increasingly does not match what I want to do. On the other hand, my Macintosh "gets it right" to a much greater extent.
