yeah sometimes I take out my phone and people ask me what it DOES. I tell them how it gets my email, lets me use microsoft office, browse the internet, run pharmacist software, and still does everything else a "normal" phone does with a nice touchscreen. They usually respond with, "oh, so its an i-phone ripoff?" Then I tell them that its been out for almost 2 years now and they give me a confused look.

iphone is just great marketing and appealing for not just power users, but for the general public who want a "cool" phone with above average options, yet without the extreme versatility/hassles of a PPC.
