It's a MID, not a phone... ;-) So yes, when they try to make phone calls from it, it will certainly change the way they think about phones...

I think at this point, MIDs shouldn't exist anymore. Why carry a phone and a MID when you can just have one gadget to do it all?

Some people like to carry more than one gadget in their pockets, but I prefer a more consolidated approach. Just a matter of opinion.

... What the Frack is a MID? Media Idiot Device?

It looks like a phone, does everything a phone does, but without the cell phone part... oh, so its a clone of the iTouch?!

As others below have pointed out.

Why bother? Its the reason PDAs pretty much died out. I dont think anyone really makes them anymore other than some cheap $10~15 device at Walmart like Franklin. Even PALM no longer has ANY PDAs in their product line (sad... a bit) yet earlier this year they used to sell a basic PDA with color for about $50.
