there's so much more then a CPU though. You still need some storage, radios (bluetooth/wifi/4g), connections for the radios etc.
Plus, if as technology gets better you have to upgrade each device independently. Wouldn't it be nice if every two years you could upgrade your phone AND your laptop for the price of one device?
