There are precisely 3 reasons for not owning an iPhone:

1) you can't afford it and/or don't want/need a phone.
2) you are a developer and want to write apps.
3) you want a decent camera phone as the primary use

For those to whom 3) applies, get a camera. The very best camera phone is not as good a camera as a camera.

Any other reason, for those that spend an equivalent amount of money on a phone that isn't an iPhone, you have denied yourself the sheer pleasure of owning one. I have not met a single iPhone owner who doesn't think it's the best thing since sliced jalapeños.

It's the screen. The screen sets it apart from anything else.
