Countdown to iPhone: 2 days

The Apple iPhone is almost here, and the amount of press coverage has been nothing short of mind-blowing.

Cutting through the clutter, the first actual reviews of the device are in, with generally glowing recommendations from both The New York Times and the Wall Street Journal.

There’s also word that YouTube doesn’t work all that great unless you’re in a WiFi hotspot, but that the majority of YouTube’s videos will be reformatted for the iPhone by this fall.

Soon the phone will descend upon us, and we can then get back to our normal lives. Wake us when it’s over.
