Here we go again. Everybody loves convergence devices so much these days- smartphones, pda/mp3 players, pda/archos-style videojukeboxes... All I have to say is bah! Convergence devices ALWAYS sacrifice both style and substance to achieve the unison of two separate devices. Even when they do achieve some measure of success, the resulting devices are always less useful than individual devices. I like my PDAs (all 6 of them) to be PDAs, my cellphone to be a cellphone, and my iPod to play music. Compared to convergence, I much prefer the idea of a PAN. At least you still have some functionality when one device gets accidentally submerged...
I am reminded of one of David MacNeill's columns for Pen Computing magazine (greatest magazine ever, although T3 is nice too). Even Star Trek characters carry 3 devices...
