I would agree with most of what you wrote. The MP3 player market has mostly been dominated by solid state devises. I have a three year old MP3 player that had 128MB of flash and doubled as a USB flash drive. Apple and Creative Zen paved the ay for the Swiss Army knife MP3 players. Since I have over 40GB of MP3s, if I wanted to store my CDs eminently, I would need a large capacity device. They are sitting on my server now. Some people carry their disk based music collections in portable devices and then when they come home they plug them into the stereo. At normal growth rates we should be at 16GB mainstream capacity in around 18 months. In 3 years we would be at 64 GB and in four and a half to five years 128GB solid state flash should be mainstream. That would be cool. Of course notebooks with 500+GB might be common place by then. For the tablet / PDA / Cell phone replacement market the device you are describing could be killer.
