Many of the same arguments were made when Samsung came out with the
Note. Now the Note isn't even the largest smart phone out there. Using
the speaker phone option, or a headset, you wouldn't need to hold it
next to your head all of the time to use it as a phone. I wouldn't want
one myself, but others out there might want such a beast. I'm not
arrogant enough to think that the only successful products out there are
the ones I thought made sense myself.

Yes. But the truth of the matter is, people are watching less TV on their
smart phone than one might think. People turn to tablets, computers, or actual
televisions for prolonged movie/video content. So yes, why would anyone want a
4 inch Tv. The answer is, most people don't. haha.
And from a technological perspective, much isn't too much to ask for now a day.
but, there comes a point where consumers just rebel, and totally dismiss
certain notions. I mean, just look at it from a ergonomic view point. Have
you ever held an iPad for any length of time? Tell you what, after 20 minutes
or so, you will start to notice the weight and mass of the thing. Yes, one can
use headphones or a bt headset to use with it when on calls but, unless you
just plan on being stationary for most calls, an iPad makes a poor mobile phone
in my opinion. So long story short, its doable, but, I don't think very
practical. At least not practical enough for most consumers to use comfortably.

(Smile). After all, couldn't someone ask the converse of an iPhone: Why would
anyone want a tiny 4 inch TV?

I think I'd like the mini much better if it was also a cell phone. According to
iPhone Life Magazine, I'm not alone.

I can barrel along pretty quickly with Fleksy as well but get tired of
the copy and paste thing which of course isn't Fleksy's fault. Having
this keyboard right there and available is worth the price IMHO.

Raul,
If you can stretch the budget a bit and want a really nice keyboard >> case

I just checked and looks like I ordered mine just in time because they
seem to be out of stock already.
