It's like the fools that will jump on to be the first to buy the Volt or the Leaf. Buying both of them is like burning dollars, because you won't make back the extra cash you have to lay out to buy it over the life of the car.

And so it is with all the "first products". The iphone was first, and it was over priced, but some of you had to have it. I don't understand this, but that's another post.

If you'd wait and take a look, you'd see that the price will drop and there will be others to pick from.
But if some like to be free of their money, ...
maybe you could just send it my way!

Except that the iPhone wasn't first.

It wasn't the first smartphone.

It wasn't the first touchscreen phone. Okay, AFAIK it did multi-touch first on a phone, but that's probably not why it's so popular.

Much like the iPod before it, iPhone was a second- or third-generation product.

So your "first products" explanation seems to have a few holes.
