Just a note here: the iPod is already a PDA. You can store addresses, memos, calendar items with alarms and now voice memos. Apple already did a PDA, it was called Newton, and was a huge money suck. I can say with almost absolute certainty that they will never never ever EVER do a PDA again. Bluetooth? It's useful for PDAs, but to add it on a device which requires Firewire for fast transfers (not to mention charging), and you're just hobbling the device.
Right now, the only similar device on the market with a feature that the iPod hasn't assimilated is the mobile video player. Just add a color screen to the iPod, and you're done.
I guarantee that none of these other things will come to pass (and I don't have any inside information on the roadmap for this device). Care to wager?
