What? Before the iPhone Palm and RIM were improving their smartphones constantly, new feature phones were coming out all the time with apps to access social media, the internet and play games. I think a lot of people actually were often wanting a better phone especially because all the phone mentioned above had terrible touchscreens.

Yeah but who was using those besides business folks. I think the thing with the iphone was the easy to use which made it more of a mass market thing. Granted they had the advantage of the ipod and a group they could sorta get to cross over.
