iPhone: No Longer A Status Symbol Of The Social Eleite?

Over the weekend I was at an event in which 2/3 of the attendees possessed iPhones; me included.  WTF RIGHT? An iPhone is supposed to embellish its owner’s uniquely creative aesthetic and urban-chic hipness, its  supposed to project a an air of intellectualism and technological superiority, its supposed to establish it’s owners significance by positioning him/her at the epicenter of their social environment.  Clearly this is no-longer true as indicated by the revelation  that the iPhone 3G topped the cellphone sales charts this quarter, de-throning the Motorola Razr.  Why the Razr was at the top of the chart for 4 years? I have no clue, Its been at least a years since I’ve even seen one in use.

This saturation of iphones in my social circles is increasing and has me concerned about my position in said circles.  Am I still unique and urban-chic? Was I ever technologically lntellectable? How do I maintain my social significance?

What to do people?  Help!
