I think thats what would likely happen. For the time being, if/when it comes out I think its just going to be a 3rd Zune form factor. Eventually the Zune 80 form factor might be blended in with Touch. Microsoft's acquistion of Danger could factor in here. Likely not in the mobile phone configuration shown below but it does open the door to some possibilities. With a wider screen than shown it could be very attractive for a variety of uses. With some gaming purpose controls..abit more fun/comfortable to play upcoming Zune games. And the keyboard as shown is ideal for IMing...which is about as far a Zune device probably would go when it comes to enabling user-to-user communication features. They don't want to tread into mobile phone terroritory with their devices. Just my .02.
