Very true.
But it indicates a loss of "unique-ness", the debate-ending trump card: "Who cares if its store is substandard, if its PC software's a nightmare, if it lacks wireless, if it lacks crossplatform sync... It's got a METAL CASE™!"
Now it's just one of the crowd, competing on the quality of its software, its store, its pricing.
Anxiety is to be expected from such a Big.Thing.
