I can text, but don't. I receive them on occasion, but don't send them.

And besides, smart phones like the iPhone, Android etc. are still pretty thin, light and easily fit in a pocket. So it's not like smart phones are huge and a hassle to carry around.
Agreed, and I'm vaguely interested in Android because I'm an OS geek. But my cell phone is a tiny low-end Nokia, about 4"x1.5"x3/4". It lives in a holster on my belt. Since all I want the phone to do is place/receive calls, I don't need the added size and functionality.

Same, my PDA stays in my briefcase, so I'd have little issues carrying a 10" tablet around that could replace the PDA and finally have a good alternative to carrying around printouts of the academic articles I'm currently reading and marking up.
I feel about the same. I love my PDA with a passion, and if I could get the same functions with a bigger screen, I'd be delighted. Not yet, however.
