Milind, I don't know about you but ever since I bought the iPhone, I've lost all will to argue with anyone about it being the best phone in the world.
I have it, use it, love it and can say, beyond a shadow of doubt, that it is the best gadget ever made. Why do I have to explain myself to some of the retards on this forum (not pointing fingers at anyone in particular)?
Every person I've ever shown the phone too, and that's a lot, even though I never went out of my way to show it off, is completely shocked by the device. They're astounded by the things it can do. Sure, it can't do a few things here and there, but Apple keeps improving it with free software updates, unlike any other company in the world.
Till one month ago, there was only one product I'd ever bought that I was completely satisfied with. Now the count is at two. Unsurprisingly, both are Apple products and both run OS X, the best operating system in the world.
So stop arguing with them. If they haven't used an iPhone, they can never
get it. And if someone has used it properly and still thinks there's some gadget out there better than it, then I pity that person. He/she has completely lost it and doesn't have any respect for the best things in life. Must've committed some sin or something to have been punished so brutally by God.
In any case, the less people buy iPhones, the better it is for us, the ones who do own it. There's only one model; you don't want to lose the exclusivity, do you?

Rs. 28,000 for the 8GB version, by the way, is just freaking expensive. It shouldn't be any more than Rs. 20,000 (people suggesting something like 16K are on crack).
