I agree, there is no business sense in doing so, especially since Apple would be losing money in phone sales if they do. But all we are doing here is discussing, trying to be objective and respectful of other's thoughts. Concepts and implementation. I for one think a cellular macbook would be a great idea as well. My perspective is a phone was a phone at one point to talk to people, and now its been adopted across the population to where many has one and uses it for much more than its initial invention. And while you seem to be able to talk for most people, I cant; but my thought is that some people rely on other devices other than their phones for daily tasks. I use my laptop and iPad 95% of the time when compared to the phone usage. So my iPhone is something I have because I need it for my basic texts and calls. I wonder if other people may have the same sort of workflow, and depend more on larger devices than mobile ones. If someone carries around a laptop with them all day anyway, why couldn't that be their main communication device as well and not have to worry about the phone?
The OP thinks it would be cool, so do others. But I think everyone has agreed and understands that its not going to happen, the OP even admits it in the opening thread. But you seem to be eager to run around with that wet blanket and lay it on them. Like the lengths you go to to try and prove that it wont happen, but in a sarcastic and demeaning manner. Like you passionately dont want this, and if it were to happen you would be disappointed. Like just look over your first post and joeblow underneath yours. While he has the same beliefs you do, he presents it in a different manner. Maybe the lack of superlatives? I guess my fault is my expectation of what these forums were, and that's my bad.
