Stephen Fry on the iPhone's smartphone competitors

I'm struggling to grab a short quote from Stephen Fry's massive blog post on recent major iPhone competitors, but here goes anyway - on the success of the iPhone:

This is no triumph of style over substance. iPhone is all about function, all about ease and pleasure of real, hard-working use, all about the fundamental understanding that is Steve Jobs and Jony Ive’s great contribution to digital (and therefore cultural) life in our time – that human beings, willy-nilly, forge relationships even with inanimate objects and that those relationships, being human, take on all the colours of emotion: it is in our DNA for this to be the case... this is a deep and important human psychological truth that allows machines to function better: much, much better.

And from the comments comes a suggestion for a syncing Apple's iCal and Google Calendar - Calaboration - seems to work admirably.
