Make careful note of the word "aims" in this article title. They compare mobile devices and... well, that's it so far.

Of course one could hop in a time machine and say "Make careful note of the word "aims", Amazon aims to sell everything. Today they only sell books"

Its good to start an ambitious idea in a niche.

Making the transition from selling books to selling other goods seems is generally more simple than the transition from comparing one type of product versus to comparing anything. As the article mentions, these tools have existed for awhile and the quality has always degraded the more universal they become. Obviously I didn't expect too many avenues of comparisons but I also didn't expect just one...
