  • I remember the same was said about smartphones when PDAs where all the rage. When was the last time you saw a PDA? Soon, the same will be said for dedicated media players, and it is almost impossible to find a plain vanilla cell phone these days. As the tech becomes more capable, more capabilities will be built into it as demand (or strong marketing departments) dictate.

  • Great video! Looks to me like Android and the swiss army knife model is taking the market by storm.

  • The "swiss army knife" model of trying to pack too much in too small a platform IMHO. At a certain point, some tools become too small (Derek Zoolander's cell phone) Netbooks and tablets will have their place in the future, and so will the smart phone. I don't think the one device idea will be the future (ever seen a two inch thick swiss army knife?) My eyes and fingers like a decent sized keyboard and screen. Only time will tell.
