Doron's Take:
I don't own an iPhone yet but from what everyone tells me who does, Apple has had a few setbacks on this front. First, they reduced the price by $200 a few months after introducing it thereby affecting a core group of customers (early adopters) who bought it at the original price. Secondly, they forced people who were with Verizon, T-Mobile, etc. to switch to AT&T if they ever hoped to activate their phones.
Don Reisinger had an interesting post on the subject and why the iPhone is one of the top tech disappointments of 2007. PC World also voted it one of the top disappointments for 2007.

Doron's Take:
Companies need to adapt to new mediums of communication including social networking. Fear of spread of intellectual property should not be a deciding factor. Guidelines can be put in place so that employees are aware of their limitations. Employees will not necesarrily use the company's social networking platform buy may continue using one they are already familiar with whether that be linkenin.com or facebook.com.
