A potentially amazing device indeed if it could have all of those features at once...
Ah but the real question is how much would you be willing to PAY for such a device? There are those out there who would say "That couldn't possibly cost more than a few hundred dollars..."
With all of that tech in one device it could easily get very expensive very quickly.
It makes perfect sense (and there are devices that have come CLOSE) but for some reason nobody has hit on this magic combination. The only reason I can think of would be cost...Certainly the technology is there by now...
I suppose other reasons might be size, power consumption, etc but those can be overcome with clever engineering...Which would of course add to the cost...
