Virtually every desktop computer today uses a bitmapped display and a pointing device... like the Macintosh.

Virtually every mobile device today uses a touch-sensitive display (and a Unix-derived OS)... like the iPhone.

Apple Inc. is the most valuable company in human history.

First capacitive touch screen phone was LG Prada [1]

There were many valuable companies in the past but they are not anymore. Apple must not push its customers limits too much or it may backfire.
