Hey I wasnt saying it was a bad thing - I was trying to sound impressed.

Anyway, mostly his post just sounds like over-eager "they sold it to me" stuff :) just what I took away.

The Iphone is a fantastic product. That doesnt matter in the slightest (it really doesnt, welcome to sales :)). What does is that Apple knew their market, played the product into it and pushed all the right buttons in the right sequence. It's an exercise in how to launch and maintain a product :)
