Most of us have only one device in our pocket (or belt for the really techies) and that is usually a hand phone. Of course, there are some of us who also have a PDA, but that is going the same way as bell-bottoms. The old argument that one would rather have multiple devices has gone out of fashion because it is cooler to have one whizbang device than 3 old ones. Just look at why the iPhone is flying off the stores.
Simply, the functionality has become usable and rich enough to replace the other ones when you are away from your desk. Or in the case of the young and the young-at-heart (in Japan or elsewhere), their only experience had been the hand phone for everything they do since childhood!
The other useful functions like picture taking, video recording, voice recording are all now integrated into the single indispensable hand phone - which incidentally also makes phone calls. So why bother to carry other things? They only need additional chargers.
