If Apple goes with a large screen and that is the only option they provide, I would be finding a new manufacturer the next time around. I do NOT expect a phone to do all things. My first expectation for a phone is that it operate as a phone effectively. The large smart phones are attempting to bridge two worlds that I don't need bridged. They are clumsy, too big to fit well in a pocket or my hands, and will eventually get dropped by me.

If my primary need is to be online, I'll use my iPad or laptop. If my primary need is to communicate, I'll use my phone.

I love innovation, but not simply for the sake of innovating. It needs to meet MY needs.
