    More like Valve created. There were PC handhelds before, but they were too expensive, had a crappy UX, and not high performance enough. Valve produced a device that addressed each of those and created a market for itself.

    If you make a compelling product at a good price, the demand will come.

      Oh but that requires money and effort, and creates a fair exchange for the purchaser, no can do. Hardware companies are more focused on how to force people to subscribe to their own devices.
