"Disruptive" is such a vague concept.
To me, I would apply the word more on stuff like that:
"D-pad interface" => "stylus interface" => "touch interface" (hey MS rewrited an entire OS to go from 2 to 3)
"gamepad gaming" => "gesture gaming"
"DVD" => "streaming" (whereas "DVD" => "Blue Ray" isn't one)

but not necessarily on a single device.

I'll gladly apply it to a single device that renders others in its class quaint or obsolete.

the Wiii was disruptive (I hate it) which led to competitors coming up with there motion gesture alternatives.
on another note the Product/tech does not even need to be very successful, if it leads to rivals rushing out to do a similar thing whether it be better or worse then it as been disruptive.

I daresay the Wii led to the Kinect.

Yet nothing else in the wii is different from the NGC, so I would really say that gesture gaming is the disruptive item. The wii is incidently the first device to implement it.

Edit:
I was thinking of the wiimote and not the kinect when I said "gesture gaming".

Feh. Nitpicking IMO. It isn't so much about the feature as it is the effective implementation, ie, the whole package.

As noted, Nokia has released innovative tech that SHOULD have caused disruption, but their execution was too poor. Apple on the other hand pulled together existing tech and packaged it into a single device that offered a highly compelling user experience. Result: market disruption.

Great for the minority, but majority want "idiot" proof phone. iPHONE crap delivers in that department

hey Nokia may also have done a lot of rewriting to go from 2 to 3 too. We'll know for sure when the Harmattan device is announced.
I suspect it will need to have something extra like haptics to be considered disruptive
