as much as i hate Jobs, i think he would have been fine with a folding iphone. an iphone that would fold out into a mini ipad? from an idea point what’s not to love? he did ultimately see the light with smaller tablets and signed off on producing the ipad mini a year before he died. (only after being told and shown how convenient and useful the smaller form factor tablets were, a samsung 7 inch tablet for reference)
but the iphone duo? i think he would have absolutely hated the thing. the interface sucks big balls. the price tag sucks even more. and they all have an inherent defect in the hinge that will and has been breaking the inner display. it’s not a matter of ‘if’ it will break, but ‘when’.
