Yes it is. But you will see that people will still pay for that.
Its funny, I see people that used to say that they would never buy
a 500€ phone and now they want the iphone and dont care about
costs...
good for web browsing, good for checking (but not responding) to
emails, good for casual games, very good for new geo-apps...
I just saw one app announcement: based on your location (using
the builtin GPS), it shows pictures on flickr geoteaged near by.
Sort of: what's interesting to see near by? That's totally
rocks....

I don't see the iphone as a computer... I would not use an iphone for the tasks usually associated with a computer.
