Is there any likelihood that the news coverage created by "Apple Global Server Meltdown", ensuing 'buzz', and creation of thousands of different stories on "well I went to buy a 3G iPhone". . . is somehow a positive, or even planned? Is it really such a failure (as the Mac-hater-unfanboys like to call it on Engadget)? So a few thousand people are frustrated. So some people have bricked phones for a day or two. Isn't there something geeky-cool about saying "demand was so high it burned up our servers!"
