Not to mention the biggest hype-machine snow job success in marketing probably.

It's all about the marketing, that's for sure.
Some of the best marketing IMHO is marketing to women for their wedding day. They have a life time of it, and after the two decades or so of saturation it pays the industry an above average ROI.

No...the people on eBay trying to hawk them for $1,000 is capitalism at it's finest. Because let's be honest. Doesn't standing in line for a few hours entitle you to a $400 profit?
But I did get one, and it's a miracle. It packed all my boxes for my upcoming move, cleaned up my dog's shit, and turned my neighbor into NOT a fat piece of white trash!

If they know they can make 400 bucks for being first in line, then yea, I guess they do deserve it, lol.
I've picked up cars at auctions and doubled my money in less than 3 days. I've done the same picking up cars from private sellers.
What is the value of anything? What sets the price? (In the case of the Iphone the answer is obvious of course.)

I work at the Apple Store in North Sydney - we won't be getting the iPhone for a long time yet but I can tell you this ...
The sales staff say this thing is teh shit, everyone will want one.
Everyone else here thinks it's a piece of shit, though they do love their iPods.

AT&T sucks.
Got that? AT&T sucks. And I can say that. Know why? Because I am not using AT&T service. If I did, then I would have to agree to their Terms of Service, which say:
5.1 Suspension/Termination? In addition, AT&T may immediately terminate or suspend all or a portion of your Service, any Member ID, electronic mail address, IP address, Universal Resource Locator or domain name used by you, without notice, for conduct that AT&T believes ? (c) tends to damage the name or reputation of AT&T, or its parents, affiliates and subsidiaries.
So, if I used AT&T, I would not be able to post this blog entry.
You know what? That sucks. Not as much as gleefully acquiescing to give all their customer data over to the Bush Administration in violation of the Constitution, or censoring Pearl Jam, but it sucks nonetheless.
Thanks

Many people hate France with a passion too!
Let me guess, Apple isn't "cool" enough for you.
If people want to buy a phone that's not even a 3G phone and pay shit loads for it, let them.
Go Nokia!

That's just fuckin hilarious. And the iphone sucks!
I send random MMS clips to my mates all the time, bits of stupid movies, random people falling asleep on the train, whatever. A phone that can't record video or send MMS these days is truly a POS.

I use my phone to make and receive phone calls. It does that pretty well.

Today's iPhone isn't all that great.
It lacks several things. But they'll get there eventually....
