Technology costs keep dropping so I expect them to take another shot at the low end of the market and try to grab market share.
I thought the phone launch was underwhelming and I'm not surprised it failed. The smartphone market isn't easy to crack. Ask Nokia or Blackberry.

That would be cool!
And because they are basically an online store, it would be fantastic for customers. Imagine that! Ability to see the product in front of you, before buying it. You can touch it but it's a more immersed experience.
