My guess is that you'd `love it' for a day or two. Then, while playing
a delightful MP3 on the train to work you'd find you ran out of battery and
couldn't make phone calls anymore. Or you'd want to look something up on
your PDA while you were talking on the phone...

`Multi-purpose' devices generally manage, IME, to be mediochre at _all_
of the things they try to do. A combined PDA/MP3/Camera/... is quite
likely to be compromised versions of everything.
