Sanity prevails: people find other people sexier than iPhone

So buried in some long poll conducted by Zobgy International and 463 Communications on the unexciting topic of "Internet Attitudes" is this little gem: in a head-to-head battle with various celebrities in the category of sexiness, the iPhone gets thoroughly trounced. In other words, much to the dismay of the residents of Massachusetts, it seems that people are still more attracted to other people than they are to technology -- and by a pretty wide margin. With only 6% of respondents placing it in the top slot (to be fair, the same percentage picked Derek Jeter), the iPhone trailed far behind Halle Berry at 27%, Scarlett Johansson at 17%, and even Patrick Dempsey, who managed to score 14% of the vote despite the fact that he pays women to pretend to be his girlfriend. As do, we suspect, those troubled few who find a telephone sexier than members of their own species.[Photo courtesy of Tasty Blog Snack]
Well, duh. The choice is obvious... iPhone or Justine, Justine wins.
Same with Veronica... sorry, Ryan.
iPhone can't give blowjobs. Nuff' said.
iJustine would bite your wang off and put it on youtube. You do realise her jaw opens to 180 degrees and is filled with tiny clicking cogs and serrated blades, right? There's probably even a mouthcam in there.
Yeah, but I'd still keep my iphone under the pillow, even with Justine on top...
@James
Someone will make it happen, Wait for the iPhone SDK :-)
This iJustine girl always has that "crazy ex-girlfriend" look in her eyes.
CAPTION: "Hunny, I thought you deleted Sarah from your contacts."
what happened to the traditional engadget azn girl?
i will light a candle for her outside my window until she returns.
amen!
Its the 300 page iphone bill lady!!! Hi!
no this is the paid-by-apple-actress-pretending-to-be-just-an-huge-apple-fan girl...
People are actually attracted to their iPhone?
I shudder to think how the iPhone users' male connector interfaces with the device.
It works quite well, actually. You lose a bit of accuracy depending on the man, though ...
iPhones don't cry when you forget Valentines day, Birthdays, etc. They are there when you need them and you can just stick them in your pocket when your done.
Notice the N95 isn't listed?... Oh, N95. I love you so. & your two sisters too: N95 8gb & N95-3.
To be fair, why didn't you include a pic of an iphone? I mean it seems only fair that the hot chick should at least.. heyyy, wait a second..
oh Justine... of coarse I'd pick her.
It's also possible that (like me), those surveyed didn't have any clue who the listed celebrities were. If I were given that poll, I'd have to pick iPhone just because it's the only thing I recognized.
Oh, and the fact I live in MA is pure coincidence...
What is that funny looking gadget on her hat?
6%? Is there a market for iphone pron?
there is a market for *any* kind of prøn
That girl in the photo is crazy hot! who is she?
Rule 34.
The human species is a strange one, to be sure. I am not certain your people are ready for first contact yet. We shall wait another 100 years.
In another hundred years, we'll be even more f'd up...
That picture is messed up - her eye closest the camera looks like it is about a half inch higher than her other and it looks like it is an inch from her nose.
i'D HIT IT.
lol!! Oh iFoam!!
I'm guessing engadget's traffic clogged her site...
Is it me or is she Brooke Hogan's doppleganger?
I tried to fix it, but now it just looks kinda creepy...

Having to choose between Paris Hilton and an iPhone is not a reliable way to determine if our species is more attracted to technology. As James said, the "iPhone can't give blowjobs". But what if you had to choose between Paris Hilton and a blowjob giving robot?
All I'm saying is the robot can be Lysol-ed...
Real women can be lysol-ed too! http://www.mum.org/lysol1.htm
I would always go with the chick, but it never hurts when you combine an iPhone with a hot chica, she is ALWAYS a winner in the game of life.
Justine hotter than the iPhone? Sorry, don't think so...once she starts talking I want to shoot myself in the face.
Totally agree with you. And she's not hot at all, just another typical rich/spoiled blonde...
Runaway bride anyone?
Women are without a doubt God's greatest creation. The iPhone? It's number 4 (behind baseball and the Fender Stratocaster).
So *nobody* has commented on Halle Berry beating Scarlett Johansson? You have *got* to be effing kidding me.
stop blogging and go do something productive instead of rating iPhones and women!
STOP BLOGGING AND GO DO SOMETHING PRODUCTIVE INSTEAD OF COMPARING IPHONES AND WOMEN AND RATING THEM
iPhone won't give you aids like Justine yo
FYI - Patrick Dempsey is and has been married; check your facts.
"The iPhone may help you get some sex". Ladies always come up to me and ask to handle my iPhone. I Gladly Whip It Out!
Turn your Computer into a Super TV!
