Any time I see someone saying 'wouldn't it be nice if there was a phone that did such and such...' and then that phone is released by a small company that doesn't benefit from economy of scale and has to price accordingly only to eventually fail tells me that there really isn't enough demand. Even the die hards won't put their money where their mouth is.

For a similar case, see this thread on the Light Phone.
No matter how much people claim to want something they still want it at a cheap price. In my business they majority of people will exclaim about how gorgeous a high quality ring is, but when they see the price they would rather buy something for less that is ultra light and set with industrial grade diamonds.
