Because it is simply the finest small device I've ever used.

Nothing comes close, and I've used quite a few.

Using an iPone isn't considered cool outside a small nerd community.
Those people who have no clue don't care and those who have a clue
<evil> see only an overpriced gadget compensating underrated

Around here (Northern New York State) a kid is nobody until (s)he has
