iPhone 4 No. 1, iPad No. 3 on Top 10 Obsessions of 2010
Yahoo! has crowned iPhone 4 the number 1 obsession of 2010, and its big brother the iPad number 3. Facebook came in at number 6 and everyones favorite TV show.. .Jersey Shore came in at number 5.
We can't say that either of these rankings are a huge surprise given the sales numbers. What is a sort of shock is iPhone 4 hitting the top of the list given the early controversy of the lost/stolen prototype, "Antennagate" and occasional blips like "Glassgate".
Despite all the bumps in the road for Apple and their iPhone 4 launch it has still been the most popular smartphone of the year in terms of sales and reviews and now apparently obsessions.
Are you surprised?

Just waiting for my contract to run out on my 3GS next year. But I'll probably wait for iPhone 4.5... No doubt it will win the obsession award again next year too!
No. Were you?
I'm selling my iphone 4! anyone interested? lol
Note at all
Behold, the power of marketing.
If Yahoo! crowned TiPb's number one obsession, it'd be those damn furious birds (or whatever they are) they keep mentioning in every single article.
Well since the ranking was based at least partly on web searches, I'd say that Antennagate and Glassgate were part of the reason it is number 1.
Surprised to see L.Lo at #2 and Glee at #4. What is that, a show about cheerleading?
NICK, i am going to guess that you have in your hand a blackberry device, and that's why you are talking like that.. get off from the dark side and join us right here the winners. GET rid of that dinosaur call it blackberry smartphone. (wanna be)
I assume that those aren't just based on "positive" obsessions but also would include the "negative" obsessions.
Anthony- were you expecting anyone to say yes?
i'm surprised people care.
it's known than fanboy saddos live out their sad lives online and use yahoo
iPhone rocks. My first smartphone is iPhone4. Beat that! I've been hooked to it for the last 3w like it is a part of by body
Marketing...may be but engineering...hail yeah!
Nope. It was only a matter of time...
@iphonefan: Actually I've never had either BB or Android. I'm using original iPhone on TMo. But I'm going to guess, no state, that you're stupid.
It's certainly been my number one new obsession of the latter half of 2010. It's not exactly perfect in every way, but this phone is nonetheless totally friggin' awesome.
