A Technology Irony

It's amazing how technology is going forward. Well, unless you're talking about the Galaxy Note.

Some years back, every vendor was trying reduce the size of phone such that the smaller it is, the more expensive it will be.
And a few years back, we were so glad we were able to get rid of the infamous stylus as an input device to a mobile device.

Now the reverse is seen in Galaxy Note.
What irony!
