This is a good result for my APPL shares, but OTOH I just got an iPhone this week, and whilst there are some nice aspects about it, I am annoyed / disappointed that some aspects of it are woefully worse than my previous crappy Android phone and there is no way round these via apps from the app store.
Can you be specific about the "some aspects"? And, since you just got the phone this week, don't you think it is early to pass judgement?

Case in point. I have a colleague who has had an iPhone for almost a year now and we happen to be talking about the Apple court case yesterday. He mentioned that he had seen a new Samsung with a bigger screen that looked pretty nice. I told him a bigger screen would be nice for video. He said he wanted to bigger screen to make it easier to text his daughter and had trouble typing messages. I asked him if he knew that he could turn the phone sideways to make the key pad bigger. He didn't. Then, I showed him that he could just speak his messages as well as his email, notes, etc. He was dumbfounded.

I guess my point is, as easy as an iPhone is to use, most people (including my wife) don't realize all of the things that the iPhone can do.
