I have a Samsung Captivate...I'm on it more than I'm on my Linux box. I browse/read forums, emails, my ebay auctions etc..I can root it so i have SU access, side load apps from 3rd party sources, use it as a modem, use it as a wifi spot for 5 devices, run video from it into a tv or monitor in HD, voice text, voice navigate with the gps, compare prices of products just by scanning the product with a barcode scanner and get directions to each place within X distance from me plus their pricing....the list goes on...it won't be long and smartphones will become like the Dell Streak, only more powerful. Small 5" tablet with full pc capabilities...
The Motorola Atrix has a dual core processor in it and for 150 bucks you can get the laptop for it...plug phone in and utilize the laptop portion, unplug it and all your data stays on the phone...
