I can agree on this.
But still, many want a dedicated device. That's the same story for car
navigators, no difference.

The reason for that is pretty trivial: your software runs only on hardware
that is not adequate for anything else. That alone makes the hardware
"dedicated for flight". That is a limitation imposed by the software, not
necessarily the user's deliberate choice.

My Dell Streak is (mostly) dedicated for flight, but I enjoy using my normal
phones on occasional leisure/schooling two-seater flights. I don't need to
remember taking it with me, I have it in my pocket all the time anyway, and
so often it turns out to be useful.
