what? bug labs, or something else? (im not familiar with stargate btw, only "tv" series i watch lately are fansubbed anime)

the problem with a all in one is that you have to take it apart if you want to leave something behind to reduce bulk.

with wireless one could drop the part that you dont really need to directly handle (like say storage or wwan) into a pocket and forget about it.
