This way I don't have to carry it as an extra device.

If you really depend on a cell phone, I would suggest looking at Smartphones. They are more phone centric, but have a lot of decent PDA functionality, in a typically smaller package.
I'm the same way. I had a K-jam through work then got my 8125. I have the lowest plan i could get.. doesn't even exist anymore. hehe. I use maybe 75 minutes per month of phone. But i use 200-500 text messages (sometimes more if the network monitor "pages" me a lot) and email and web constantly.

Even when i had a standalone phone i used it mostly for a bluetooth internet connection for my pocket pc.

So i like having the phone built in mostly for an internet connection and a phone when i need one. works great for me.
