I dunno, I love my Cingular 8125/HTC Wizard. I bought it out of necessity. The hx4705 I had was great, but in the mobile world I live in, being connected is getting more and more important. And, I'm not always able to stop off at a wifi hotspot or any such thing to do what I need to do.

A year or so ago, I was adamant about have a separation of devices. Hated the PocketPC phones. Now, I won't go back to a regular cell phone. The uses are too great to me.

If I ever get out of the IT field though, this may all change.. But now that I've been using it for a little bit, I doubt it..

However, overall, I think the trend is to go to converged devices. I think that the standard PocketPC is on its way out the door. It was a great run while it lasted, but with people being more and more mobile, and wanting to get their email and such on the run, I don't see it lasting much more than another couple of years or so.
