No one has claimed this honor, yet.

Interesting.

There has to be someone; perhaps they now feel ashamed?

Would that not be an all-time kick-in-the-nuttsack?

"Congratulations. You've just spent A LOT of money on a device that will likely be rendered obsolete in 6 months when it is sold for less and with more features and the ability to sign up with other cell-providers. And now, my friend, you have bought shame."

We must find this person. They must be interviewed.

I've got to believe that the folks who bought these things had their adrenaline pumping for weeks up until the point of purchase. Then there was still a thrill-ride (if they ran into no technical issues) as they discovered that the phone actually works as promised. Then there was a final stage, 8 days later, in which that they realized that it's JUST A PDA! It's a $500-600 PDA that requires a $1500 annual contract.

Then comes a final realization. The individual slouches on their Google-Ball and realizes that they are, in fact, an Apple-junkie. If Apple sells it, they will buy it. The individual then promises themselves that they will never again "take a hit" from the "Apple-Bong..."

Page ahead 2 months. Apple announces a new "Bong..." "Apple-junkie" can't help himself...

Some people have too much money. In fact, it scares me how too much they have.
