Um, the ipod is widely regarded as a model of interface friendliness and intuitiveness - you do realize that, right?
Apple certainly isn't perfect, but the intuitiveness and user friendlyness of Apple products compared to anything out there is what drives their rising adoption rates

Sorry, not paying $500 for a phone that doesn't record video, has no memory card slot, doesn't have actual buttons, and can't send pictures.
Sure that might change in later revs, but right now a $500 phone should already have those features under raps.

There’s no memory-card slot, no chat program, no voice dialing. You can’t install new programs from anyone but Apple; other companies can create only iPhone-tailored mini-programs on the Web. The browser can’t handle Java or Flash, which deprives you of millions of Web videos.......
The two-megapixel camera takes great photos, provided the subject is motionless and well lighted (samples are here). But it can’t capture video. And you can’t send picture messages (called MMS) to other cellphones.
Apple says that the battery starts to lose capacity after 300 or 400 charges. Eventually, you’ll have to send the phone to Apple for battery replacement, much as you do now with an iPod, for a fee.
