>>Why would someome buy a basic cell phone when they can get a computer with cell phone capabilities and a lot more?<< Uh, portability? Cost? Ease of use? IF this is true, (I don't necessarily believe it just because I read in in cyberspace), it certainly will not replace cell phones. In fact, I would think it would be a high end niche product for some time until the price of cellular service comes closer to ISP prices if you're talking about using it to connect to the internet. AS a cell phone, what, everyone is going to get a portable laptop and carry that? or a Palmtop? What about the mouth and ear piece? Hey, it would be cool, but I certainly don't see it as a threat of any kind to cell phones. Tell me what I'm missing.
