Could you read the first paragraph of your comment critically? Then I will not need to tell you how badly wrong you are.

Do you know that Nokia, Motorola, Blackberry, and likely others had prototypes first but decided that there would be no market for these kinds of devices? Steve Jobs did not follow the herd.
