My suggestion was that people should buy those devices if they want specialization (as Texrat suggested), but that I very much like just having a single device to do everything.

It only seems to contradict because you read my post incorrectly (or my intentions were unclear, I was typing on that damn thumbboard :P). I don't want Nokia to develop specialized versions of the device at the expense of jack-of-all-trades functionality. I want a single device I can stuff in my pocket that (alongside a small cellphone) can do pretty much anything a fullsize computer can—games, business, media.
