Smartphone vs PDA

Yet more examples of the difference between the US/ European / Asian centric views of the untility of PDA v's Smartphone from FT.com.

I have been a PDA and simple mobile phone guy for a while because there are times when I don't want to carry all my data whilst I am having more than one drink. However, increasingly I am leaning toward an integrated device. RIM will die, its a service not a product, my iPAQ will not suffice - battery life drain on Windows CE is unbearable, which leaves a choice between the Treo and the P800. Unfortunately the Swedes lose this battle. Any one with any thoughts is most welcome to ping me on this.
