That's my take on the Yahoo/Microsoft takeover. The original image was stolen from The Fail Blog who claim to have stolen it from Fark.

Yes it will go through. Yes the Yahoos will hate it. Yes the results will not be pretty. It's a huge opportunity for all the other players in their respective spaces to welcome customers and their money with open arms and great products. Google still has the small issue of creating new products that generate income to deal with, but it will be good for them. Apple will keep focusing great products on the customer.

Fake Steve sums it up best.

Almost nobody has seen or used an iPhone, and so the press is having a very hard time covering it. What coverage there is comes from two forces camped on opposite sides of the only known geographical feature called One Percent Of The Mobile Market Hill. The Yes They Will camp says they will have 1% or more of the mobile market by the end of 2008 and so be Successful and the No They Won't camp says they will not and will have Failed. Roughly Drafted chimes in too.

I'm betting that they will. But I think the real surprise will be the number of people seen carrying an iPhone in countries in which it isn't sold and doesn't work.
