None of them picked up on the point that user don't care if their ipod battery dies during usage, but if your phone battery dies its like having an arm cut off. So its far safer for a user to have both devices, so that if the ipod dies on the way to work they can still chat to their mates for the rest of the day. An apple phone won't necessarily fix this problem. I got the latest copy of ME yesterday and there is a round-table discussion, including will phones replace the ipod.
