Tonight as the sun sets on your local high-end electronics store, there will be two kinds of people in the world: those lucky few who were successfully able to obtain an
iPhone, and will now spend the next few months annoying the bejeezus out of everyone they encounter; and those who didn't arrive early enough, wait long enough, or otherwise inflict upon themselves the massive personal sacrifice it took to beat the hype-fueled rush of orgiastic tech nerds clamoring to get their hands on Their Precious. I guess a third group would be people like me, who find the phone appealing, but aren't particularly interested in being the Very First people to discover all the disappointing usability issues that Apple will undoubtedly correct in the bigger/better/cheaper 2nd generation of its miracle phone. No matter where you fall on this spectrum, the following sketch from
SuperDeluxe is almost as funny as the materialistic hysteria that's currently taking place outside of the world's Apple Stores this afternoon.
