This is revisionist history.

In the keynote, he never mentions "devices that require a stylus".

He says "who wants a stylus? Yuck!" and "if you see a stylus, someone did something wrong".

This spin into "well _obviously_ Steve meant X" is purely personality worship, not borne of his words.

Back in 2007, if something came with a stylus, it was overwhelmingly the case that the stylus was required.
