It's so ironic considering that only a few years ago cellphone makers were bitten by the same bug - how much smaller can we make the cellphone. Motorola came out with the v66 and then Samsung released an even tinier model.
But as we have seen with cellphones, small size versus features is a tough battle. Technology can only get you so far, and for maufacturers to make money and consumers to get hooked, in the end it is features that sell.
For my money, I'm very happy with my PPC phone. It fits in my pocket nicely, and I can pull it out anywhere and watch a full-length movie on it. Heck, for the price of a video ipod, it does WAY MORE for me than just play movies and music!!!
