Why does any _one_ model of cell phone have to be a compromise? Why not a range of models, from one which does nothing more than what dial phones used to do to one which does everything anyone has ever thought of asking for?

I wasn't really talking about one particular model, but I meant "cell phone" as an entity, range of models.

I believe that's exactly what most manufacturers are doing - they have something really simple and cheap (like Nokia 1100), something that's really high-end (like N90), and then something in between.

But it's still a lot about compromising. If nothing else, cramming everything inside a small package will cause serious overheating or pricing issues ;)
