Having a phone that can turn into an iPad is probably going to get some use.

There is practical purpose to a touchscreen, the fact that short sighted people couldn't see its usefulness is my actual point.

I'm just saying I don't think the market is going to be big enough for these models to even get close to emptying shelves. Maybe it's not the right time, I don't know, I'm just finding it difficult to see any use where people would find it more appealing than the form factors and devices they already have.
