I'm not trying to say it is either, just that the points you made can very well apply to a number of other devices (both in the form of music-playing phones or phone/DAP combinations.
To be honest, I don't think the iPhone is worth getting - but that's mostly down to the limitations on the phone side of things. The being tied into one network for so long, on an expensive contract is far from appealing, not to mention that it lacks some pretty basic phone functions.

I don't think you'll find anyone around here who believes the crap Jobs spouts.
Even if you don't take an anti-Apple line, there's a gulf between the true 'worth' of their products (that's not a great term but I can't think of a better one) and how much it's hyped up.
