The more I think about it, and this thread has led me to think about it a fair bit, the more I realize that my own preference for dedicated vs. multi-function devices depends entirely on the intersection of use and suitability.
For example, I no longer own or use a dedicated MP3 player. I use my phone. A modern smartphone is at least as good an MP3 player as most dedicated devices, and I've pretty much always got it with me.
However, while I do read on it, it hasn't taken over that use case. The problem there is that while it does work as a reader, I get a noticeably better experience from a dedicated device. That's not the case with music, so I've ditched the MP3 player and kept the readers.
