Would you rather have an all-in-on device, or seperate devices? by .blade// on 01-17-2005 at 07:06 PM

After reading and replying to this thread a number of times, it got me to thinking. Would you guys rather have several devices that work really well and have lots of features, or an all-in-one device with less over-all features?

For example, I have a cell phone, a PSP pre-ordered, and am going to buy an  Ipod Mini Generation when they come out. Would you rather have all those (keeping in mind you have to pay full price for them. The cell phone was $100, the PSP is about $200-$250, and the Ipod Mini is $330 (all in CAD $)).

Also: Post your reasons, and what devices you want/have.

As much as an all in one device would be cool, my reasons for saying no are simple;
1. I don't want to splash out a ton at once
2. If it breaks I don't want to be without everything until I can find a solution

well tbh it would be great to have one device with "extensions", so it's compact and you don't pay the full price.
