So, the iPhone: The most popular phone ever, right? Maybe not. Today, I decided to take a stroll down an outdoor mall into a Cingular AT&T Wireless store, and lo and behold, the glorious device that only recently had its record for most people in line defeated by the nefarious Mr. Potter, known only as the iPhone, lay there on a white Apple iShrine.

So I got to touch it….and man was it horrible. It was like basically touching a glass surface over and over again. My hands are so big that I basically type “J” when I want “B.” A phone like that needs a stylus, not one’s own fucking fingers.

Even better was the conversation I had with a random person. Basically, he hated it too, preferring his Helio to the iPhone, further saying that he actually Won an iPhone, then sold it on ebay for a grand. Perfect profit.

But that’s not the biggest insult. The worst was talking to one of the employees. I asked if they had the iPhone, and he told me they had “a shitload.” Basically, anyone who waited outside that fateful day to buy an iPhone wasted a good deal of their morning, as well as a few hours of beauty sleep. Told ya it was stupid.

Nevertheless, I’m a bastard, and I’m gonna throw my hat in a “Win an iPhone” contest. Apparently, an internet marketing blogger by the name of Gary Lee is giving away a free iPhone. The contest is to advertise his Golf Equipment project, as well as a free online coupon website.

I won’t sell it on eBay (It is a pretty piece of candy, and I can probably use it as a PDA, as I said I would) so the phone will stay with me.
