The point you are making is irrelevant as it has nothing to do with my point which is what I want as features on my phone. Whether manufacturers make them or how many other people may want the same as I do is a separate issue.

What phone do you use now and are you satisfied with it?

Tell me that and I may be able to then figure where you are coming from. BTW, read my comment to f6v.

You asked:

> How can you say that, where are your figures/stats/evidence?

I responded with:

> just look outside in the real world?

That’s totally relevant to you asking why no mass-market phones support increasingly niche features that ~0% of the population need or want, and you expanding on this by saying “me and one other person I know want this”…

Read my reply to david-gpu.

I can't make it any clearer, sorry I don't speak Klingon.

Or
