This is representative of the absolute mania surrounding the iPhone:

We counted at least 30 of these boxes getting unloaded a few minutes ago off of a UPS truck. The management at the store in Palo Alto tried fruitlessly to block our view.

Now, if someone told me that my local Target was about to get a shipment of a few hundred Wiis, I might drive down and spend an hour or two to see if I could get one. But a phone? Mostly, I sit on conference calls with my cell phone, so no matter how sexy it is, I'll still be spending most of my time saying "huh? I lost track of the conversation, so could you repeat that?"
