Your 'review' of the iphone made me cringe. Your use of superlatives is seriously uncool. You seem like a person easily awed - the type of person who sees perfection in something that is merely better.
A frog is just a frog. Nothing else, nothing more. Don't project the feelings you have about frogs unto others.
How can great writing make you see _everything_ different. This is physically impossible. I've been reading since I was small, and each book you read exposes you to more possibilities, and moves you a bit in one direction. But books don't change _everything_ about you. That's just silly.
I think people might buy the iPhone rather because they WANT to believe that it is magic and wonderful than because it really is. Still, it is an achievement if you manage to bank on that desire.
I for one look forward to Harry Potter VII for my dose of magic - much cheaper, and probably much better than the iPhone, too.
