Exactly.
I don't want to have to carry this "other device" besides my Phone. My phone should be able to do all of the things those "other [pocketable] devices" do, where those "other devices" are:
Mobile Phone(*) (with voice, SMS/MMS, and WWAN data)
Pocketable Linux/Unix computer
Pocketable Internet (email, IM, etc.) device
Pocketable full-feature/experience Web device
Pocketable PIM-type device
Pocketable Media Player
Pocketable Game Player
Pocketable GPS
(* included because, depending on your perspective, the phone might be the "primary device", or the "other device")
Any solution for my pocket where I have to get some or all of those functions by carrying "another device" is an insufficient solution.
