Just in time for the weekend, Apple screws up!  It must be true that God loves Arrington.  Because this will give TechCrunch writers plenty to write about. 

The biggest lightning rod for Snark just has to be the iPhone.  Why?  Because Geeks love it, so that makes it lame. But everyone else thinks it’s cool.  How can it be that the Geeks have something that everyone else covets?  It’s because Steve Jobs is the Kwisatz Haderach!

Not only that, but it’s expensive.  Here’s what the hippocampus is thinking:

It can’t possibly be worth that much.  Because I can’t afford it.  So there must be something bad about it.  Oooh Snark.  Make me feel good again.  Please Snark.  Make the iPhone suck.

And voila, bad reviews and all.  Just check out how many mini-slams are tucked into this gem. It’s too expensive. It’s not that different. The launch disaster.  They only “appear” to have fixed the call quality.

Is the iPhone a phone? Or was it sent to us by God to make millions feel better about not having one, while millions feel superior for having one?
