Also, last I checked it didn't integrate with your contacts on the Mac, so this meant you had to maintain 2 contact lists if you were a mac user. Absolutely retarded.

What do you mean by 'it'?
Sounds like you would have FTTP in your scenario.
And the story has FTTC. Common in the UK. Virgin media (cable compay) for example bang on about their Fibre network constantly. But most people are on coax. FTTP is a thing here too now that mostly POTS and DSL are not really such a thing here anymorr.
This solves the problem with the big screen phones which are much better* to use but awkward to carry.
I will be interested to see what they do.
I still wish they had went to a folded size between watch and half an iphone. Which opened to iphone size. This could be the apple pocket watch or similar.
personally in my experience of touch screen laptops, the main uses of it have been
1. google maps/maps . It's way nicer being able to touch the map, drag it around and pinch to zoom, instead of abstracted mouse and even worse on track pad.
2. excel / spreadsheet / pdf reading, it's nice to be able to just reach and drag the sheet around or scroll the document, . You can do this with your thumb, resting your arm . You literally extend your arm a further 2 inch then when its on the keyboard. no gorilla arm stuff.
3. music controls, or volume control. Waaaaaaay nicer to be able to hit play pause / stop next swipe the volume, than firstly waggling the pointer to find the cursor then moving and clicking and pause or whatever.
the mac drop down control centre at top right is top candidate for touch interaction.
particulary in the excel/text editor/ word / pdf example, being able to move the document around, at the same time as moving the mouse around is really nice for lots of reasons. I really wish computers would accept multiple mice and have multiple pointers for lots of things and this is a similar thing.
And, on the mac, being able to mirror iphone, but interact with touch will be really nice. Hopefully they can do a decent job and have multitouch etc

Profit???!!!
Really? Dude if this stresses you just wait till you grow up, and face real problems and challenges in your life.
