If phones were presented in their final forms, as if plucked from the brow of Zeus, they wouldn't be able to hike the price up by crazy and disproportionate amounts when a new feature is "invented".

Think of it like sending telegrams - the little man in the smart phone sends a telegram to the little man in the TV, and he plays whatever videos the little envelope tells his to.
