I appreciate it would introduce some ergonomic difficulties if cars and mobile phones were the same size, but at least it would put an end to all the confusion.
I do think he made the right call at this stage of market maturity.

Having a single product (with a ridiculously simple product name to boot) enables them to bombard the market with a single marketing message for that single product.

Unless it's a mature market where people already want tablets in sufficiently large quantity so the vendors can spread out their effort to more form factors.
