>>Consumers are starting to leave iPods at home in favor of listening to cell phones that store their favorite songs. Should Apple be worried?

A touch ironic that the example consumer still owns the iPod too.<<

I also wonder if it's really more a matter of consumers just buying a different cell phone than they would have previously. Not that there will be no effect on iPod sales as cell phones become better music players, but consider this: many cell phones are also digital cameras now, yet the market for standalone digital cameras continues to grow.
