iPhone Spotted in Public
And this show-off isn't the only one using the iPhone to passive-aggressively boast about how cool, plugged in and ahead of the curve he is. Earlier this week, Wall Street Journal tech writer Walt Mossberg was spotted flashing it under the noses of college leaders at a forum put on by The Chronicle of Higher Education. Mossberg was given a unit to play around with for review and had yet to decide if his verdict on the iPhone was going to be favorable or not. But, we think we have an inkling of which way he'll swing. As anyone who's ever read Mossberg's column certainly knows, his love for Apple borders on idolatry.

I've just wasted my time reading this crap. Maybe I should be a reporter, I could post useless and stupid stories every day and get paid for it.

WOW! This is news?
yoJun 20th 2007 3:45PM
so what if a guy has an iPhone. apple probably gave some of the phones to the employees to test and see if they are compatible with everyday travel and activities. maybe apple wanted to see how much people would like the phone-like a test drive.

I call 'free press' on this one. They probably gave out 10-20 iPhones to Apple employees and told them to flash 'em around town to get the hype building back up.

I can't wait to get the I phone it comes out on the 29th. I am an AT&T customer already. What's the big deal $500 or even the $600 for the one with more storage space? I mean if you can't afford it I can understand why your all pissed off. But I think it's cool less people will have it! Id pay the $600 to get this phone and I am going too. And I also like that AT&T is the exclusive phone carrier to have service to this phone. No other phone carrier will have service. Awsome! Now you won't see every person with an I phone like you do the Motorola Razor. The Razor is old news now and everyone has one boring im ready to dump mine.
