    I think it's good to consolidate all of these little devices into one... it means less junk rolling around in your pockets. Storage shouldent be so muc of an issue at the rate larger and smaller drives are rolling out. Biggest concern would be battery life. It would be nice to see manufacturers throw in a little aaa compartment in the event someone depleats the batteries and needs a few more hours before reaching a power outlet.

    If you could take the rough dimensions of a mini and change up the form factor to be a little more phone friendly - in addition, modify the earbuds so that they can work as a headset to recieve and transmit voice - the thing would be really great imo. Why carry both an mp3 player and phone when one device could merge the two so well? The ipod wheel navigation would also work great for phone functions.

    Or that new motarola phone that flips open to a keyboard and screen - put a decent size drive and itunes on that.
