I could show you 100 popular non-keyboard-having pre-2007 devices, starting with the PalmPilot a decade before the iPhone.

There's just the slight difference that the iPhone caught the attention of the general public and caused a major shift in the mobile phone industry. Not an insignificant difference, in my opinion.

So no one will buy a netbook in 3 years?

Of course they will, but hopefully there will be a number of inexpensive tablet style devices to choose from too.

Apple fanbois are just ridiculous.

As are the anti-Apple ones.
