English is not the only language in the world and the US is not the only country where the iPhone is sold.

of course it is possible, but at what cost. Apple went with GSM to avoid having to make a US phone, UK phone etc.
not to mention that there could have been patent issues etc. to deal with. the whole slide out keyboard is not need and we know how folks love to sue Apple over sketchy patents, imagine how much someone would love to charge them an arm and a leg to license a patent to avoid the legal game of being sued.

Now if MS would get off their ass and clean up windows mobile... (Don't get me wrong, I love windows mobile, but being that I am not a WM fanboi I can recognize there are problems with it.)
My personal interpretation of the resistance people have to a hardware kb on the iPhone is the same general fanboi reaction: "This came from the hand of Jobs, how can you question it by suggesting a kb?" (despite their convoluted claims about thickness, functionality, etc.)
But not being able to txt/email in landscape mode would put some hurt on the usefulness of a horiz slide/flip out kb...

Did they photoshop copy/paste and MMS into that? Because that would make the whole concept totally unbelievable.

inexplicably devoted fan base + proprietary operating system = Profit!
Gee, I wonder why they listened?

I am a fool. I would pay massive $ to own that if it was real.

But I suppose that when the whole concept is fictitious why not shoot the moon, right?

You can't/shouldn't change this much in a design and expect all other aspects would remain the same. With a redesign of this magnitude there will always be trade-offs, and depending on price I'm sure there are plenty of people who would be willing to forgo the change in form factor for the added features.
