I somewhat questioned this as well, even having owned a touch for 2 years. After looking at the options out there, playing with other phones, nothing beats this iphone for ease of use IMO. My only complaint is AT&T. their service has lots of holes in it. More bars in more places my rear end.
I saw a friend browsing the internet on his iPhone 2G and I was jealous. My N95 seemed so clunky. Even though the N95 was 3G the iPhone still seemed a much nicer experience.
That combined with the way it displays photos and it's an iPod too...
I now choose to view the internet from my iPhone because it's so quick and easy. If my PC is not on then I am happy to use the iPhone. That never happened with the N95.
Looks too are a huge part of it.
I've had a Trio and a HTC in the past and using the physical keyboard on them was not ideal. I live the iPhone's on-screen keys. It makes so much sense.

Thank you for so succinctly putting exactly what I was thinking.
It's without a doubt the best I have found.

It's not just one element, but rather how they tie it all together for the user experience.
No other phone out there combines the ease of use, style, hardware, and available software as well as the iPhone does currently. Other phones might be better in one of those categories, but not all of them.
It will take quite a while for other companies to catch up with Apple on the app store side, and while they're catching up, Apple will still be moving farther ahead.
You get an erection by looking at a phone? Or dirty fantasies? I've never understood people saying their notebooks/phones are sexy.
HELL YA I DO! If you dont think the iPhone has sex appeal then you dont deserve one! haha

I'm the same way. My phone and laptop look cool and all but I would not call it "sexy". Back on topic the phone is really easy to use and is very powerful at the same time. Typical .
yes I do, just wanted to hear it from others too, Im fed up of telling others what i think, so now i'm just going to give them this link
