Ok. I cracked. I admit it. I'm weak!

This evening, at approximately 17.15, I sold my iPod Touch to Seyhan, marched into the O2 store and proudly asked to buy an iPhone...

...And by deity it's like Zeus breathed life into a lump of iron and silicon and had Aphrodite and Athena tend to the looks and the workings. It's ambrosia, it's royal jelly - a truly decedant piece of kit. Pert, shiny and juicy sweet like some erotic lovebot from another dimension.

This is the point where the machines surpass humanity on every level. There's more charm, grace, poise, sophistication and innate lovability in this polished electronic case than has ever been housed in a biological frame.

Of course, I'm being silly and going over the top but DAAYAAAMN...

I shan't bore anyone with the details of why it's such a throbbing, shuddering delight. But I will promise you that the hype is there for a very good reason. And fuck the price. Ok, it isn't cheap. But I've bought enough dated, second-hand, poor quality crap in my life. I wanted something new, for once. Something fresh and cutting edge.

It has its flaws, I'll admit. But perfection is always a step too far and you can wait forever for it to come along. The only possible cause for regretting owning an iPhone is that it opens you up to all manner of fuckwits tutting, rolling their eyes, shaking their heads and sighing.

Bollocks to them!

You, my friend, have an excellent way of wording things.
Agree with the last paragraph, I couldn't have put it better myself :)
