@cantankerous_cashew This saddens me. It means people don’t really get that it used to be “the medium message” but now it’s “the device is the message”.

The iPhone is a thing to communicate with others one-on-one
An iPad is a thing to watch videos on if you like and to scroll through the news.
A computer is a thing to work with, if you insist like a portable one.
A TV is a thing to watch stuff together.

Customers seem to long for one device that does it all.
Sad.
