Does anyone just have a regular home phone anymore?

So,what's the advanced cellphone,going to kill next?

Nintendo.

Given your post history, I don't know if you're joking... but I actually agree. I mean, cell phones will eventually kill handheld consoles... but the PSP/NGP product lines compose only a small part of Sony (not that Sony aren't dying on their feet, anyway... but, that's for another thread), while the DS is half of Nintendo's product range... and probably constitutes for over half of their profits.

The death of the handheld, and the increased competition in the home consoles will mean that Nintendo will either need to evolve, or will be the next Sega, by the time the decade's out.

No they won't. PC's which have always been more powerful and technically could have the same controls still never stopped the annual growth of home consoles.

As such phones with the lower gaming centric technology and lack of real controls will never stop the annual growth of portable consoles.

Completely different markets with different consumer needs and expectations.
