Apple sued over iPhone false advertising

Since an Apple maniac might even top an Obamiac Kool-Aid drinker in annoyance, this is some of the best snark news in quite a while.

But, as the story also notes, Steve Jobs still has plenty of Kool-Aid thinkers, who believe (in part just because of his reputation as the anti-Bill Gates), that he’s the greatest thing since a sliced iMac.
