As a dedicated Mac user (I'd have nothing else at my house, and curse the
Windoze machines I am required to use at work), some would think I would be
a good candidate for standing in line for one of these things.

Just remember the First Law of Electronics Purchases: never, ever, buy
version 1.0 of anything (in the case of Micro$oft products, wait for version
3, at least). Remember the Newton? The initial product (accompanied by much
hype) really sucked. The final iterations were actually very good, but in
the marketplace couldn't overcome the early disappointment.

That stated, iPhone is looking pretty good, so far.
