iphones and people

I have noticed the number of iphones increasing among the people I know. It is particularly interesting is that a lot of people who are non-geeks now have iphones, this is because the iphone is now available on cheaper mobile plans; the geeks were prepared to pay the premium to get the iphone early. I know of one person who now reads their e-mail because they have an iphone, previously they were too busy to sit down at a computer. This means that the iphone is actually increasing the number of people who are actively using the internet and the WWW!
