Hmm ... without seeing what all it can do I'm going to say it's over-engineered. Too many bells and whistles to integrate with the phone, which runs counter to Apple's identity of making products that are attractive because of their simplicity.
Tech companies have been marrying the phone to the PDA for almost a decade now, and they're still not successful. Consumers seem to be pretty clear that these hybrid devices are NOT what they want.

looks cool but $499 for the 4G and $599 for the 8G is too much for me... I love gadgets and electronics but the cell phone is one thing I hate.

Not having my phone working because I let the woman watch a movie, and she killed the battery, would suck.

With an LCD that large I wonder how long the battery lasts regardless of whether you watch a movie or not.
How long can a PSP go?
