iPhone FTW!!! Now, I'm guessing that all of the Apple haters will come in and flame me for mentioning such an awesome product, because it's made by the coolest company ever. Just guessing.
It looks like it's gonna cost Apple a ton of money before it ever even comes out cause they don't legally own the name and are violating copyright law.
As far as deck boxes and sleeves, check Ebay. There should be some deck boxes for sure and I think I've seen those sleeves with a big VS on the back up before. If not, try the Avengers/JLA/etc collector's boxes that come with deck boxes and sleeves, though I hear the sleeves in those are really horrible quality.

They'll probably re-name it the Apple Phone like they did with iTV (now Apple TV). And it's actually the MHG/DCR boxes. And yeah. I guess the sleeves blow goats.
Oh the Avengers/JLA set didn't come with sleeves? Yeah! That's right, I forgot about that.
As for Apple, if they're smart they will, but on the other hand they should have never launched the publicity for a product called "iPhone". If they change it and no lawsuit comes about, it's STILL a HUGE sum of money lost on marketing. Tech products like the iPhone are all about getting the name out and hooking people who want "that one I heard about on TV." Sure Apple has the cross promotion of the iPod and crap to all ready have name recognition out there, but they'll still have to spend money to make up ground with the less-tech-savy crowd that heard about "...that iPhone thing. Apple Phone? No, no... _I_Phone."
He was probably typing using the auto-complete feature, where the phone "best guesses" according to language frequency when you type numbers - you'd type '3 3 2 5' and given the phone layout *either* word is possible from that sequence. It often gives you the option to select the next appropriate word, but some phones dont offer that option.
Myself, I don't like the autocomplete for precisely that reason, esp because I often use German words and the phone never autocompletes those! It makes typing a *little* bit slower, but I can manage 40+ wpm even when I have to type "deck" as '3 pause 3 3 222 5' instead of 3 3 2 5.
It's an eye dee ten tee error, not a phone error, in other words.
