What's stupid about it? Both are rather spendy devices. The HTC has pretty much the standard bearer smart phone features. So does the iPhone, with the minor exception of free push e-mail (look out, RIM), an apparently better web browsing experience, that video v-mail thingy and OSX running the show. If the price point after buy-down for the Touch is less (a distinct possibility), consumers who value push e-mail are still getting a better deal going with the iPhone. Remember, the cheapest Blackberry add-on is $19.99/month.

oh, there's the stupid iPhone comparison. We were waiting for it in the main Engadget article. We missed you, man.
