in this particular case, for the most part also be fulfilled by the more versatile iPad I understand your point, but all I am saying is that in this case "for the most part" is not good enough for many people (eg. me). I do, actually, have the urge for an all-in-one device, but I also have certain things that I don't want to compromise on. My reading experience is very important to me. On the other hand, my wish to take a quick photo/video is not a big deal. So, I carried a sub-compact camera with the iPhone 3G, but if I get an iPhone4 I won't bother - it's good enough. On similar lines, I have more or less ditched my portable game devices in favour of the iPhone/iPad. Other people have different priorities. So I think people do want to converge on one device, but not at the expense of their convenience.
