Anyone who carries around a phone like that without a protective case needs their head examining, if you ask me .
I wouldn't know a thing about it. My last fully functioning Apple product died over a year ago now (an iPod) and I'm loathe to buy anything from them ever again. Snow Leopard wasn't even lipstick on a pig, it was eye-shadow on a kitten, and their increasingly paranoid restrictions are in opposition to everything I believe and hold dear about technology being for all instead of the few. They're about the dullest tech company on earth in my eyes, with very little excitement in their product-lines and beyond my meagre budget at all times.

Now Android and Ubuntu....there's some excitement.

Damn, this turned into a rant.

EDIT: And personally, I can't stand mobile phones in any shape colour or form, even the Android ones (it's the OS that excites me about them). I only have a very basic mobile phone now for emergencies and other essential communication, and it doesn't do much more than that - make and receive calls. Most of the time I forget to charge the damn thing.
