Can Anything Displace the iPhone in Consumer's Eyes?

True, but then not true. The Mac OS is also derived from other operating systems, and to say Apple invented the graphical interface is a gross overstatement. They might have refined it, but the GUI was born in Palo Alto in the Xerox labs. As for the iPhone, it's a good phone but lacks killer apps for the business user. I think WM-based phones are poised to take that part of the market.
