And why did I call it a PoS?

Simple. It lacks a bunch of things a lot of people would like to have in a "smart" phone.

OTOH it does have 128GB, so you can store all those new apps, videos, songs and ebooks on there.

Excellent.

Until it gets obsolete, or the battery dies and you have to move all that stuff and you realise how much you've accumulated and how slow it is to transfer

While we will just pop our cards out of ours and stick it into the slot on a model which has a slot to plug into.

Regular OS updates would be worth that kind of money. Better control of data leaking would be worth it too. If it had the basics in already.

I think an earlier poster is right. This was designed to appeal to smart phone reviewers, not actual customers.
