You misunderstood me.

My point is that technical improvements, meaningful or not, can't convince people to buy if their needs are already met. Benefits, not features, is what sells. Old saw from the PC world.
Look to 3D TVs and 4K TVs, for starters.
Techies drool but the market shrugs.

Foxconn could deliver a 10 GHz tablet with 1GB hard drive and a holographic display for $499 and the people who use their tablets for email and websurfing who say "cool" and keep on keeping on.
