danramos - I believe we do
christexaport - as much as I'd like to have the latest greatest, (1) I have a family (2 kids) so I have a limited budget and (2) I don't need to pay extra $$ for features I don't want or need.
1) I would like to be able to upgrade to faster web service in the next couple years 4g/LTE as it becomes available, cheap cellphone = cheap upgrade.
2) There are many situations where I don't want/need a smartphone with all my data on it, where I can potentially lose/break it, again, cheap cellphone wins.
3) There are times where having 2 devices / 2 batteries is desirable (long airplane trip).
Additionally, I suspect battery life will be worse than current tablets due the extra juice needed for telephony features. I'd rather have longer battery life and more flexibility with 2 devices than a single device.
