They can co-exist, but this is a control issue. USB connections to external devices deprecated to rely on proprietary services; replacing non-replaceable batteries creates reliance on 3rd party services; absence of expandable storage encourages hardware deprecation and high margin internal options; lack of physical keyboard... IDK why, despite my need I am consistently reminded I don't really want it. All these improvents take control away, create future revenue streams, obfuscate the mundane and, best of all, deliver wafer-thin slabs that are a short drop away from replacent hardware. This is why I am waiting on parts to revive my nokia n900(again).
