I think this is a niche market with little growth potential left. For every different combination of features, sizes, specs, etc. there will be some segment of the market that will respond. There are companies who will make a lot of money filling all these niches (Samsung, LG, etc) and companies who focus in on the fat part of the curve (Apple, Microsoft, etc).

People have now experienced the problem of browsing the web with 4" screens. Regarding the screen size problem, my vision is that the communication functionality (I/O) will be taken over by dedicated devices using bluetooth. Such devices could be a watch, light and invisible ear plug, microphone and camera. The one big block of material doing everything as we have today is just a step in evolution. There is so much open space left to explore and develop...The demand is evolving, and fast.
