I would like to see Deck treated more like a phone, kind of like they are. Incremental improvements alternated with (hopefully to come) generational leaps.

This is exactly what I was thinking. You wouldn't need every new iteration. They'd be smart to do it in such a way that lets you upgrade it like you would do a regular PC as opposed to people throwing their old phones out just to get one that's marginally better 2 years later.
