It's the iPhone crowd that really niggles away at me. They seem to walk around with the iPhone always in hand, in front of them, and waving around. They seem to wave them around non-stop, pausing only to talk about the wonders of Steve Jobs. I mean, I've had people pull out the iPhone in the middle of meetings and start waving it around and they completely lose track of what everyone else is saying and come in at the end with "But .. I've got an iPhone!". Followed by pulling out a cloth and polishing the screen intently for a minute and then waving it around some more.

One of our salescritters bought the stupid thing and he'll actually shut down in mid sentence to wave the iPhone around.

I'm wondering if there is a correlation between lack of multitasking on the iPhone and a lack of multitasking in iPhone users. Certainly they don't seem to be able to own an iPhone and interact with society at the same time.
