@mmn @andstatus, I generally agree with that. When iPhones were still rare and one friend's messages had included that footer for 6 months, I started wondering how he could possibly _still_ think he needed to brag about to novelty of having an iPhone or being able to send mail from it. I think I sent him a reply at some point: "OK. Glad that makes you happy. Why do you keep telling me about it!?"
