It will be a game changer according to their marketing campaign and hype generated from Cupertino. Can you name specifics on how different it might be different than cars today?

There are tablets and smartphones in the past and now, what is so different now? It is marketing and hype for a product that does not or may not do as much as what has been available.

Many people will support Apple no matter what they produce or support.

How would I know? I'm not Apple. Few can guess what Apple's going to do. That's why the rest of industry is always following.

I've already told you. Before the iPad, it was desktop OSs crammed into tablets with pen interfaces, the public didn't like it. Before the iPhone the pinnacle of phone touch technology was the LG Prada, which was what we'd call today a feature phone, and which had a pretty crappy Flash-based UI anyway. The iPhone defined what a smart phone was to be, as evidenced by the myriad copies.
