I spent last week in Las Vegas at the National Association of Broadcasters conference. More than 130,000 people from all over the world were there. And one of the things that I noticed at the show was people are STILL gaga over the iPhone, particularly from countries where there is no iPhone.

Whenever I was on my phone, texting, checking e-mail or taking a snapshot of something on the show floor - someone(s) would approach me and ask if that was an iPhone I was using. The people from Asia seemed particularly intrigued. Eventually I had to stop using my phone out in the open because it was getting in the way. I was getting slowed down by strangers wanting to see the phone!

Despite the fact that many now take the iPhone for granted - there is a large segment of the world population anxiously awaiting their chance.
