iPerbole?
You tell me what this is all about.
Okay, so here's a dude in Fifth Ave. New York, obviously jubilant that he's got his hands on this piece of 'technology' as they would like to call it, with the people at the back CLAPPING HANDS AS THOUGH IT IS A GRAND ACHIEVEMENT?
So yeah, you've just cashed your savings into Steve Jobs's bank account to make him (and his associates) a few thousand dollars richer. Thank you and have a nice day, let’s all clap and celebrate his riches.
Yay for the 'Yay' factor.

"The REVOLUTIONARY iPhone comes with mobile, internet (email, web browsing etc.) and iPod functions..."
Oh wow. This is SO DAMN unique. Like, we've just discovered that mobile phones are mobile. They've started a revolution. And internet browsing, wow, NO OTHER PHONE CAN DO IT? Give me a break. iPod functions. Fine, so that's new on the shelf, but don't we already have the Sony Ericsson K810i and other phones like it with mp3 players inbuilt into the phone? Revolutionary iPhone, they dare say.
Again, Apple has not been shy to flaunt its low battery life. 5 hours of talk/browsing/email? 16 hours of audio playback? Try run the two together, audio playback and talk, and you end up with a phone that needs a charger at every available location. Your car, your office desk, your living room, the restaurant, the toilet...
The best thing is, just like every other Apple creation, the batteries are NON-REMOVABLE. That's right. You will have to send them back the phone so that they can remove it for you (which coincidentally means that you will be cut off from talk/browsing/email/iPod for weeks till they get the batteries replaced). Built-in batteries are not user-friendly Mr. Jobs. Then again they fuel monopoly (and hence billions of $$$ extra into your pocket) so that should be a good thing for you, which is what we all want innit? (do you hear the loud applause as an extra few million dollars gets cashed into his bank account?)
Touch screen. That's what it’s all about innit. That's why everyone's calling it the sexy phone, because it comes with no buttons. Then again if you're drunk on a big night out and high on every chemical substance known to man, the last thing you want to be doing is punching a screen and sliding scroll bars just so you can make a call for a cab to take you home. I've got a Nokia that does just that in the touch of ONE button. That's right. ONE button calls a cab. With the 'revolutionary' iPhone, you will need to slide your way into your phone book and punch your way across your contacts hoping that your iPhone registers your touch (assuming also you don’t have a tremor). Ever tried using a touch screen at the Airport to select your flight? You get the drift.
Two Megapixel camera. This is the greatest creation. We've never seen it… for two years? The latest phones all come with 3, 4, and now 5MP cameras. So why has Apple stuck to the miniscule 2MP when the technology for higher pixels is already there? Why not, take out the bloody camera and tell your fans to get an idiotic digital camera if they want that function? Oh wait, you can't do that. Your market share will drop, which means less money for Mr. Jobs and the millions of employees under him. So we'll just have to chuck in the 2MP camera 'to feed the lions' then huh.
In Philadelphia, Mayor John F. Street was among those waiting in line at an AT&T store when he was asked by a 22-year-old passer-by, "How can you sit here with 200 murders in the city already?"
Street told the man: "I'm doing my job."
Enough said.

Apple was happy to announce to the world that the iPhone is 'patented', but a quick Google to the copycat centre of the world (a.k.a. China) and no surprises there, we've got a twin! So much for your patent, Apple.
(In case you were wondering, the REAL iPhone is on the right, and the one on the left is the clone)
It is called the P168 (I presume because 168 in Chinese means 'get rich quick', which is sooooo typically Chinese), and not only have they ripped off the wallpaper, they've also put a 2.0MP sticker next to their 1.3MP camera just because they can!
P168. Get it from the store near you. Just don't expect any applauses or fancy packaging.
