Today, there are 17,500 iPhone stories in the last 24 hours from the 4,500 Google News outlets. That's still above the first weekend peak of 16,835, but down from the stratospheric 20,000+ range of last weekend.

Overall, the negative vibe from yesterday seems to have simmered down a bit. Today, David Pogue of the New York Times posted an informative (and visually attractive) article on iPhone accessories. Om Malik of GigaOm.com finally broke down and bought an iPhone against his better analyst judgment; I'm sympathetic to his plight because I am still resisting the urge to do the same and reassuring myself that the Nokia E61 both Om and I are using is "just fine". Eric Zeman over at Information Week confesses today that the iPhone beats his Blackberry Pearl hollow at doing Web work and is undermining his Crackberry habit, much to his surprise. And Bill Tancer of Hitwise has an interesting analysis of the demographics of iPhone searches in Time magazine. It's just another iPhonecious day.
