Of course, a similar argument was laid out in the first half of the 2000s, when camera companies said "Why have a mediocre 2MP camera on your mobile phone and a compromised storage for music, and a cramped keyboard for emails, when you can get a quality digital camera, a PDA, an MP3 Player, and a mobile phone - all on your belt holster?"
Of course, we all know how that argument went - so long as you can pack enough features at a cheap enough price, and a "good enough" quality, people will take that option, especially if it already fits into their daily routine.
