      A big iPhone would do me. The current one is too small, so I end up using my iPad quite a bit - I flick between the two. Having one big phone would be perfect, but would Apple produce something that discourages people from buying both a phone and a tablet?

      Big enough to work on, small enough to fit in my trouser pocket.

        The iPad Mini almost does that. Can't hold it like a phone but many if us never do that using Bluetooth only.

          The iPad mini definitely doesn't fit in my pocket and I'm not ready for a man-bag.

                I carry a phone everywhere since it fits in my pocket. If I'm going to carry a bag then I'd rather just have a laptop with a keyboard. I do have an iPad mini at home, which is mostly used for playing games 🙂

                  To the OP, if you don't have a phone with you, what do you do for 911? I don't have a cell phone outside of work, and use Skype on my iPad mini, but don't use it as a phone (via Skype) much. It would be great if they just put a darn phone in it. They already have a 4G module in it.

                      I currently carry an IPhone and an IPad pretty much everywhere I go. Heck even when I go to gigs I use my Ipad for running sound. I often wonder if I should just carry the IPad mini with me only and give up the phone.

                      Cell phones are getting larger do you see them taking the place of the tablet or better yet will the tablet replace the phone?

                      Specific to the topic, I will not replace my phone yet because I do not want to carry something larger all the time. I like the small convenient form factor. If I really need something bigger, it will be in the car (assuming non work scenario). Any other time I have my bag with me anyway.

                        I use a sling bag all of the time. I can fit a tablet and a ultrabook if necessary.
