As soon as it does not fit in your pocket it is no longer a PPC. So there will always be a niche for the PPC as we know it today. Sure this is nice, but as I walk around our offices and someone pages me to a phone to ask if next Thursday at 2:00pm is good for a conference call, I don't expect to have this tucked under my arm to answer the question but my PPC will still be in my pocket ready to book the time. Nor do I expect to have this with me (in a protective case for sure) when I am out with friends to show them some recent photos or video clips or other neat W?BIC stuff.

Give me some form of very rugged and stable memory storage (other than a fragile hard drive) that I can pop out of my mega-workstation and plug it into a device like this so I can have EVERYTHING with me without skipping a beat to take to a vendor or client visit, or pop it into the mega-workstation at home so I can work from there a couple days a week :lol: and I will call that progress.

But even with this dream device, I will still need my PPC to book that conference call. And please don't tell me to use my phone. They are good for chatting with people and not much more.
