Sony To Sell PDA-Compatible TV Tuners

"Consumer electronics maker Sony Corp said on Wednesday it planned to ship in December samples of a mini digital broadcast tuner module that would enable mobile phones to act as televisions. The tuner module, which is smaller than a postage stamp, can be used in mobile applications such as cell phones or personal digital assistants (PDAs)."

So, I have a question for all of you who want everything in a PDA: what do you do when the next great thing comes out, like TV embeddability as suggested by Sony's new chipset? Then, there'll be FM radio, game control, high-res camera, speakers... where do we stop with PDAs? :lol: Don't get me wrong -- I think this is a fantastic idea -- it just makes it increasingly harder to define what the ultimate PDA is.
