I like my iPhone and regularly use my Netter's Anatomy application (only available mobile-electronically on the iphone) and other medically related apps daily. I could only do about 15% of the stuff I do now with my Treo(now retired) and none of it on my company blackberry or on any nokia.

I am witnessing a shift in my peers as we reitre our treos (often coupled with nokias for better telephony) and pick up iphones. The company (unnamed for obvious investment rules) is weighing iphone adoption due demand(high), cost(less than RIM) and security issues(unknown).

However many have been sold is insignificant compared to the slow but steady replacement of other devices in smartphone sectors.

I own the following related stocks:

Apple, Microsoft, Nokia, and Google.

Sold Palm in 2004.

Sold Blackberry in fall of 2007.

your resistance proves its a revolution. Go Man, GO! Resist change!!

Don't believe the Earth revolves around the sun – Stay Heliotropic!

The world is not round; it's flat and that is why we don't fall off!

This isn't a revolution 'cause revolutions are cool and I am cool so I would be part of it…or am I late or maybe stubborn because I didn't call it first.

Revolutions aren't perfect, never have been and never will be. They are just a little bit of a new direction in thinking. In science and technology most of them skip right over the glassy-eyed heads of Intoshtards who would stampede like numb lemmings to prevent the possibility of thinking differently.

Apple is not mecca and Jobs is not the messiah.

Neither is RIM or MS or Sony or Motorola or Google, etc.

When companies like General Dynamics are having discussions about shifting to iPhones for Nat'l Security reasons, it is probably safe to say that something is different.

Different isn't always better, but it is always different.

:phhhhtt

1. So? The iPhone still crashes. The browser still dies. Google it.

2. Cool feature but hardly useful, let alone "revolutionary".

3. Other cell phone manufacturers have app stores too. (That comment about Google shows how a Mactard you are.)

4. And that's an argument for how the iPhone is revolutionary??? Do you know what that word means? Touch screen is a very limited control interface for gaming. Another sign of how a big Mactard you are.

5. You will the Big Mactard of the Month award for that comment. 'nuff said.

6. RIM has 15 millions *business* subscribers (they shipped more than 40 millions phones). How many iPhone business users does Apple have? With an old OS, Nokia held 45% of the worldwide smartphones market in Q1 of 2008. Second place was RIM with 13.4%. RIM is 1st place in the US, with 42%. Apple had 5.3% worldwide; 20% in the US. (http://www.gartner.com/it/page.jsp?id=688116). It's typical Mactard behavior to belittle the competition when in reality it's Apple who's trying to become a legit contender.

7. How does that make the iPhone "revolutionary"??? Besides, supplies are so ridiculously limited in some countries, it's no surprise it's out of stock. Ever heard of "Playing hard to get"?

"people are going to buy the iPhone like gangbusters for the next five to ten years" That clearly shows how a juvenile Mactard you are.

Nokia had a Worldwide distribution in place, which Apple is only getting now.

Lets compare Apples to Apples. How many "smartphones" did Nokia sold last quarter in the US vs iPhones ???

Now start thinking .. again.

Man this Apple love is very sickening

Of 32 million smartphones sold worldwide in the first quarter of 2008 no more than 2 million were iPhones.

Now start thinking.
