The screen is large and has good brightness and contrast, the touch interface works very well, the keyboard is fine after a slight learning period, and the battery life is excellent. It's a bitch cleaning the smudges off the screen, though.
chris is right, of course any overhyped product is going to sell like hotcake and raise stocks for the first few months, thats obvious. the hurt comes when people realise it's not a solid product and apple has grossly over projected stock value and then it drops off sharply.

It will do fine simply because it is an Apple product. The iPod is not a very solid product for the price, but how popular have those been since they came out? With the iPhone, I think it is mainly people associate Apple with cool technology, so they pay the extra $ for it.

Your car is pimpsauce, murdizzle. I wasn't including your car in my blanket statement about the the majority of euro cars... although I don't like many mercedes.

it's not about the initial sale guys, or if they will sell or not, its the hype and over projection to get stocks up from apple and the lack of ability to move the product at the over projection. why do you think they've release like 7 different ipods + the nano? quarterly earnings.

sorta like sony i would say, with the PS3. ----, just recently it took a 100 buck price cut to just try and sell. id get one for blue-ray, but theres not many games i like for it right now. plus it can be turned into a Linux box, which would probably make it 6 times as fun and useful to me :P
