Chris – the problem with arguing with you is that you think things through very carefully and you make really good points that are hard to dispute. 2 weeks ago you gave your analysis of the 3G iPhone and everything you said made sense. I was particularly intrigued by the example from your Total Quality Management days (i remember those days too!) where your instructor compared a plastic bag to a nicely designed leather bag and asked which was the higher quality bag – and only after told you the requirement was to carry dirty groceries. (I did kind of wonder how your groceries got dirty though – maybe messy was what you meant?) Anyway, your point in bringing up this example was that it’s important to take into account your own personal requirements before jumping to something like the iPhone. I agree with you 100%.
