I don't care about the phone itself
it's what it does to people, the fact that it's always glued to their hand and you can't have a conversation with them because they're too busy updating facebook or twitter to say what an awesome time they're having ignoring the 3D people in front of them. I always pity the people in company of iWankers when they're uploading photos of parties before they've even finished, or posting to say how much they're enjoying the meal they're having, because they're obviously ignoring their friends at that point.

I'm aware this is a huge generalisation, but it's applicable to 90% of the iphone owners I know.

I find this rude too
But it extends to users of Nokias, HTCs, Blackberrys etc.

it's true
I had a scrap with Wiggy when his HTC desire first arrived because he was on facebook all the time. And because he got addicted to that gay ass FourSquare thing where you sign into wherever you are all the time. Sooooo lame! And stalker-enabling.

Agreed
I don't like FourSquare as an idea, I don't want randoms knowing where I am.

That is a massive generalisation.
But they're always right.

I have a jabscreen (Charlie Brooker reference) because it was cheap and, unlike the Nokias I've had for the past four years, doesn't crash three times a day.

It's still only a phone though.

I've had my little Samsung phone for over 2 and a half years
and it's dented and battered, but it still makes calls and texts and the calendar and alarm work fine, that's literally all I use it for. Wiggy gets mad because I forget about it and it runs out of battery.

Admittedly, it was very useful when we were on the narrowboat and it ran out of petrol and the lads all used their posh phones to find the nearest petrol station, but I also managed to glean the same information by asking the guy on the next boat. And in the end it turned out they were all wrong and my bloke was right.

I find Blackberry users are far worst than iPhone users at the stuff you just said.
