Very true. But on the other hand, I know no one who admires the Communicator for its phone capabilities. I think the Communicator ( which I really dislike BTW, despite all the specs, as I think the keyboard really sucks, and there is no choice in other text entry.... ) will go head to head with the Pocket PC Phone edition (like the Jornada 928), and the 7650 will go head to head with Smartphone 2002 (like the Sendo Z100).
The choice is if you want a PDA that doubles as a phone ( Communicator / Jornada 928 ) or a phone that doubles as a PDA. The main function will dictate the main parts of the size and style of the unit, and the second function will add things to that.

From what I've seen of it I don't think the software is pants. But these stories until so far are limited by nature as they are just previews, not reviews. That being said, I think it will be most important that the Smartphone 2002 is a good phone. When that is accomplished PDA functionality will distinguish it from the rest of the phones, and in that case you're right: software matters!
