That's right. The market has spoken, and unfortunately it has said it doesn't want small phones. Personally, I still do though.

I don't think it's the consumer market. It's more expensive to manufacture with physical controls, keyboards, and moving parts. It wasn't lack of consumer demand that killed the phono jack.
