No. Forget the A380 and stick with the 747. No forget the 747, it's rubbish. The 707 was better. No it was crap, the Constellation was way better. No, really only the DC3 was any good.

The A380 will (as ILFC says) be a world beater. It will revolutionise the way we travel forever. Teething troubles are standard and there will be more. None of this will change reality.

Boeing better get their act together with a 747 replacement if they don't want to go the way of Lockheed and Douglas. The 787 is better than the current A350 but that wont be enough to save Boeing in the long term. Just my thoughts.
