> Over the years they never hesitated to cannibalize their own product lines (iPod)
The iPod was subsumed by the iPhone, not cannibalised. Parents were obligated to buy their kids a device with tracking/communication capabilities, so iPods became irrelevant. Now everyone buys the 2x more expensive device.
Now, if Apple were to merge the iPad and Macbook, I would agree with you readily.
