If you want to see some passion, check out the comments on this Fortune column looking at the "discrepancy" between Apple reported iPhone sales and AT&T activated ones.
My POV - Steve Jobs may be a lot of things. Not sure he is that stupid to misrepresent such a major number in public. Unlocked phones used on non-ATT network, foreigners buying iPhones in US due to favorable exchange rates and not using them on AT&T network, unsold inventory etc etc...the correlation between Apple shipment and AT&T network use is not as straightforward as it seems.
May be Stephen Colbert will jump in with an opinion - far more interesting than the Presidential race -)
