What's an "iPhone"? Â* :-)

The iPhone is a slightly more sophisticated communication system than the telegraph or teletype, requiring a basic knowledge of a "QWERTY" typewriter keyboard and thumbs that will eventually evolve into pinpoints. Also used to eliminate basic rules of proper grammar and spelling ability, as Apple knows what you really meant. Usually used by introverts afraid to communicate by voice. Less sophisticated than the "telephone," which allowed users to transmit and receive data via simple conversation. Also encourages and reinforces Pavlovian response to stimulus, as another iPhone user's ding, ring or other signal is often misinterpreted by others as a "CRITICAL" alert which requires them to reflexively twitch and reach for their own electronic leash.
