Apple's Interesting Challenge with Its Best Buy Deal

The reason that the RAZR eventually failed is because, when you got past it's "cool" thin looks, it was essentially just a phone - nothing else. Motorola never improved on it's basic features. It was finally eclipsed by newer, innovative smartphones. I think your comparison is flawed. You are mixing two totally different types of devices: plain-vanilla cell phones like the RAZR and smartphones like the iPhone.
