While it didn’t cause people to abandon their iPods, it did have an attention-grabbing “slider” form factor. The Chocolate proliferated in colors (9 in total) over the last 2 years and the hardware was upgraded about a year ago, but the slider design remained the most recognizable aspect of the phone.

As consumers have expressed interest in this style, wireless carriers have increased their offering of slider-style phones. The chart below tracks consumers’ interest in slider phones weekly over the last year. The bars represent consumer interest in slider phones as a percentage of total consumer interest in all mobile phones, and the line represents the percentage of all phones on carrier websites that have that form factor.
