I'm thinking a lot of the excitement is from people who love their iPhone/iPod and want a bigger screen. Which I guess I can see, but for me a lot of the usefulness is lost if you can't stick it in your pocket. (And it annoys me that Apple gave us *this* instead of a true netbook.) It's definitely one of those "devices people don't need (but will spend money on anyway)."

Multitasking iPhone would be rad ^^. I'm still waiting for one with a physical keyboard, though.
