The advantage of a dedicated handheld is that you don't have to worry about draining your battery while gaming.

If you use it as your main communication device you can't play while expecting a call (the Skype app will be freezed or closed when starting a game) and you probably play less to keep enough battery time for calls. With 3G always activated and Skype running, the battery won't get you through the whole day anyway.
