It wasn't sarcasm. It was a shortened version of the argument that, among other things, the iPod Touch is the most important device in the iOS product line and it has always been the case. As such, Apple carefully positioned it as that it will be as invisible as possible (for example sale numbers are bundled with iPods not iPhones) while it slowly grows to become "the one". The decoy was apparently good enough that even Google failed to notice the opportunity. They made the Nexus free from carrier but not free from phone parts. Or, it was, generally speaking, some argument along these line. But since long arguments lead to useless arguments, they may become poison to this "forum". So I avoid. Most of time. Now you owe me 8 upvotes. [sent from a Chrome browser NOT on the ChromeTouch].
