portable car gps pda

there are a ridicoulous amount of devices out there, but they can all be placed in a few specific categorys, multifunction cell phones seem to take all of these devices and put them in one. so do you guys think that any of these types of devices will stay dedicated, or just become a cell phone feature
1.pda's
2.good old regular cell phones (the dedicated ones)
3.pmp (portable media players)
4.mp3's (the ipod became the iphone, but what about non ipods?)
5.gps (sure your cell phones screen is small for a car, but in a few years theyll have fold out oled screens like paer which will make up for that)
6.calculators (for those that dont know the iphone is can be a scientific calculator, graphing calculator and !!!3 dimensional graphing calculator!!!)
7.hand held gaming device (hell game developers are abvondoning there trust of sonys psp faster then white people left OJ's, the ds lite is fun and great but cell phones look just like it, can have similar controls and can have a more powerful components)
8.speakers ( i know this sounds far fetched, ha sounds, but speakers ar getting smaller, louder, and better sound quality every day, I wouldnt be suprised is speakers of a cell phone would be used as a cell phone)
9.modems (you really dont want to read this part, i made it to long, but go ahead if you dare) (so youve bought your new $2000 dollar laptop, and your $400 hundred dollar phone, then you go on your smartphone and search the internet, the internet you decide would be a better experience on your laptop, you open it upand theres no wifi foe miles, so you go to buy a modem and find out that the modems contract fee is higher then your cell phones, then you realize that you can connect your laptop to your cell phone and miss the modem fee altogether, sounds like a rock solid idea to me, that's why id never buy an iphone, you cant use it as a mosem, my $50 dollar samsung phone can at 3g speed, and your $500 hundred dollar iphone can't just plain sad)
10.netbooks ( i know this sounds silly, but the only reason cell phones dont have fully featured internet browsers is their lack of power, in 2010 there will be 2Ghz processors in cell phones and 2gigs of ram, current netbooks would be slaughtered on there first birthday if we had cell phones two years from know, now. yeah so what netbooks will also be more powerful, but the only reason I think the cell phone browsing experience hasnt gotten really big is the limiting experience for the power)
11. projectors (oh yeh, if you dont think this is a possibility just research the exponential decline in the literal mass of projectors, at this current rate an HD projector will be the size of an ipod classic by 2013, and by 2017 the will be the size of the built in 2mp camera on your current phone
12. potable hard drives, thumb drives, storage devices in general, the mass to storage ratio of SSD's to regular hard drives are going to be caught up to hard drives by 2012 (for example, largest storage capacity of a 2.5 inch hard drive by 2012, 2TB, largest storage for SSD 2.5 by 2012 2048GB), by 2015 512GB's of SSD's will fit on a 1.8 inch drive or even more storage
13. DVR's (tivo, directtv, and a slew of others), your home computer is already as capable as a current DVR if you have vista, also that capability is rumored in apples next OS update (yes that's right apple lovers, underneath the surface leapord is missing out a whole bunch of stuff) things such as the size of the archos pmp's are already fully fledged dvr's, and several differeint applications have come out for smartphones, most notably the one for the iphone, I forget the name of the app, but its there and its kicking
14. flashlights, even thougth the average person dosnt have one of these on them it still comes in use at times, come on admit it, youve used your psp, ds or ipod as a light in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom, but lcd's auctually arent that bright compared to future tech, oled screens dont need a backlight and can be as bright as 800 lumens, thats like a painfully strong flashlight, or FED which is slow to pick up momentum but is rumored to be even brighter with no backlight
15. keys, keys to everything, including your car, house, and anything else you can out fit a electronic automatic lock with
16.credit cards, this tech is already emerging for busses in europe, but what about safeway, pizza hut and that shaddy aldut store around the corner
17.mirrors, lady's will like this and it is out there, one way mirrors that turn into bright multitouch screens when fliped over
18.remote controllers, since phones these days are quickly adapting to multi touch screens, and not to long ago strange named new companys were popping up every where with dedicated touch only universal remote controllers, this didnt go over well because of most of the different companys didnt have suficient funding, the technology at that time wasnt advanced enough, and people are used to buttons, but

It's a frightening thought.
