Apple, Inc. announced on Tuesday that their fiscal fourth-quarter profit rose 26% on revenue of nearly $8 billion and that sales of its iPhone products have reached nearly seven million units.  Of course, Analysts didn’t like this enough and their stock dropped a little over 7% – so I guess all isn’t golden in Cupertino.  Even still, I would guess their holiday party is still going to be outrageous (anyone want a date for the party?)

What I don’t understand (and yes I have one) is the passion that their iPhone seems to instill in its users.  It’s just a game machine that plays music and has a mediocre phone with it.  There are other companies that have things somewhat like this, but none seem to receive the same following that Apple has succeeded in achieving with its phone.  I just don’t understand.
