Oooohhh . . looky what I can do on my iPhone.... Uh, yeah; old news. Maybe in a few years the Apple fanboys will stun us all with cut & paste on their iPhones.

Well, that's kind of my point re browsers. I've had cell phones with browsers for years and until mobile Safari, I did only use them in a pinch.
The point I am making is that the size of the screen coupled with desktop style browser allows many more people to actually USE the browser on a regular basis. That's why you see iPhones getting ranked extremely high in mobile web browsing. I also heard today that iPhone is the number one mobile browser at BoA - there are more stats like this and I would be happy to dig them up.
I think if you had actually spent a week or two using the iPhone some of your opinions might change.
Best,
Kurt
