Sure, for some women, but let's not generalize. Personally, I hate carrying a purse, and the new phones don't even fit in the pocket inside my purse. Plus, I miss being able to reach the entire screen with one thumb, with the phone held in one hand. I do admit to typing two-handed, sometimes, but damn I wish I didn't NEED to! I can barely reach the left side of the screen reliably, much less the top left corner. :(

Unfortunately the market has consistently spoken - small phones simply don't sell. Nobody could sustain it. Whether or not it's because the generalization is accurate or not is moot.
"Sure, for some women, but let's not generalize."

I agree, we should only talk about individual anecdotes. After all, we are special little snowflakes, each and one of us.
