Ok... he is what I want to know, apple has been using the touch wheel since 2002.... it's now 2009.... why didn't you do this sooner?
And to you Mr. Jackson, not all of us have more money than brains. I have the first iPod Video, I don't have every song ever written but I have about 2,000 songs total. Sure an iPod touch would be nice, but I don't have that kind of money. Secondly I use my iPod as a portable Hard Drive as well. Thirdly the iPod nano isn't going to be replaced by the iPhone nano if it even exists. Not everyone wants a phone with their iPod. I surely don't and why does it take a “smartphone” three generations to figure out how to take video and send picture messages, and it can't even multi-task.
How do you know the patent holder didn't try earlier and Apple told him to drop dead. Wouldn't be the first time. Apple is one of the worse offenders in this arena (far worse than Microsoft, though arguably not as bad as Intel.)
Especially for a company that has never made a phone or anything like a phone before a few years ago, and they started from scratch without copying other designs and have one of those most popular "smartphones" in the world right now even with it's shortcomings.
"I'm a college student looking for a new laptop, but almost all of my media I receive digitally. I'm looking for a laptop, not a netbook, without an optical drive, and budget sensitive. The optical drive will just be a waste of space, when I can have thinner laptop. What's out there?"

What smartphone company didn't take at least 3 generations to come out with a product that does everything for everyone?
