I distinctly remember Steve Jobs being dead set against an iphone or mobile device with gestures and movies and games, he has said we would never see a smaller lighter "netbook" from Apple but the Macbook Air is real close. Somebody at Apple has been pushing these ideas and had to convince him at some point.
