Apple Computer has recently filed a patent for a multi-functional handheld device, leading to many speculations that the company is going to expand its stable of products to include a smart cellphone. The filing which was published last week shows broad illustrations and descriptions of a bunch of handheld devices that boast touch sensors all round. Apple is widely tipped to unveil a convergence device that marries the functions of a cellphone, a portable media player, GPS, remote control, a handheld console, and a PDA into a single entity. The schematics shown belie the fact that this new device, should it see the light of day, will come in a candycar form factor. One can only wait with bated breath for such a release. Do you guys prefer the convenience of a convergence device, or remain loyal that a jack of all trades is master of none?
