VITA will be perfecting its game builds in 4 or 5 years, so that is PLENTY of time, and this thread doesn't show that the VITA is getting lapped quickly by tablets, it's not. It'll be another few years before that happens (look back to my first post for why).

If the VITA was a smartphone it would be a lot more expensive to manufacture and in some cases to sell, have a lot more competition including the phones SONY already make, the system wouldn't be optimized for gaming, it would have less core games and the games would look worse if it ran android, if it didn't run android it would fail as it would be missing thousands of apps. And lastly, the controls would be crap, you can't get the controls VITA has on a smartphone, it is far too big for a smartphone, unless you're wearing MC hammer pants, it's not going in your pocket. 

In 4 to 5 years, Vita will be dead.

In one year smartphones and tablets will have CPU/GPU combinations that are easily 2x the power of Vita.... add in a bluetooth controller or if Sony was smart enough, slider style phone with controls and Vita won't stand a chance.
