Well none of those would be a reason for me, but then maybe I'm just asocial. I've just thought of a reason to dread them:

It will be impossible to view and simultaneously listen to the caller-sender. Those using them will either be using earpieces, or the loudspeaker function. We'll no longer hear just one half of umpteen inane (to us) conversations - we'll hear the other half as well. No more guessing the missing half! Maybe that is progress.

Ps. These thoughts are less than essential to the future of Qualcomm. But what of civilisation?
