Another article on Gadget Convergence, this one in the Economist.
In accord to their general mistrust of technology they take a negative
spin and focus on "the Death of the PDA". Isn’t it obvious to everyone
by now that only the hopelessly geeky see it as an ADVANTAGE to carry around
27 different Gizmos to handle different aspects of your cyber-life.
My price-performance sweet spot is a device for under $200 that can
keep track of my appointments and contact info, send and receive email
and basic web pages, can carry and playback a decent amount of music, and
is an easy-to-use phone. Cameras, GPS, and biorthyms I don’t need, but
could be add-ons for those whose tastes differ.
Anyway, here is the Economist article.
