iphone

Another reason to like the iPhone: the much maligned Apple App Store at least has one advantage - they keep developers from being bad:

"A recent test of prototype security code for Android phones found that 15 of 30 free Android Market applications sent users' private information to remote advertising servers, without the users being aware of what was being sent or to whom. In some cases, the user's location data was sent as often as every 30 seconds."

Finally!  (Although I've been satisfied with ATT so far... I wonder if this will drop plan prices...)

I often hear people complain that apple-lovers are "sheeple," buying whatever "Lord Jobs" offers them.  They compare apple products to their competitors based on specs and price, and use these to "prove" that apple users are being conned into buying inferior products.  They always ignore what apple and its users have discovered, though - specs don't really matter, experience matters.

Finally - multitouch!

I think it's great that with a ~5 year head start, Microsoft still couldn't produce anything to stave off the threat that apple posed :o)
