I have a very nice DSLR, well a micro 4/3 (Lumix G3) if pedantic, which can take amazing photos, even with my limited skills. But these days I use it maybe twice per year as it is never in my pocket.
99% of all my photos are with my iPhone 6+ including the best one of my daughters first school day last week. I took some with the DSLR at home, but the best light (and pose) happened on the walk to the school which I was not going to lug a great camera with me on.
Maybe I would use my DSLR more if I got an Eye-fi card or similar so it can automatically sync to Dropbox/iCloud but for now it is reserved for the occasional event only.

You sort of want a mid-range beater at first, you don't want your dream camera, you want one that you know you'll beat up and replace. Now the camera industry isn't the fastest moving, but all this means is DSLR and pocket cameras need/will to get better. I can see the low-end pocket cameras will disappear; phones are effectively that. I just can't see the various camera companies going down without a fight and arguably the people that buy and use $4000 cameras aren't the same market is those the buy galaxy phones. The bottom is getting better at a rapid clip though...
