Comment Digital Convergence (Score 1) 1017

I strongly believe in having multiple personal devices, having the simplest and easiest device for each purpose. Thus, I'm against the digital covergence that everyone is talking about. Sure, your cell phone can take pictures, play MP3s, record GPS logs, send faxes, and brew coffee, but I'm pretty certain it still sucks at all. Furthermore, if one component fails, you have to replace the whole thing. iPods don't pretend to be anything else, and they do a fantastic job at their one purpose, and that's why they're so successful.
