In the lead-up to this iPhone release, I noticed an odd thing: many people around me who had stayed out of the smartphone game until now were making solid plans to buy into this release of the iPhone.
I've checked in with friends - even friends from abroad - and the story is the same. Lots of people seem to be trading in their 4+-year-old flip phone for an iPhone. I'm not sure why.
