This is an interesting discussion. I think it might be a generation thing.

I'm 23. I expect to use my iLiad for a total of 2-3 years, until something better comes along. My last PDA lasted me 2 years, and my last computer 4 (mostly for budget reasons). I think of most electronics as disposable, and certainly don't plan on keeping any kind of portable electronic device for more than 5 years. I suspect older generations feel differently.
