> pocket computers with a legacy voice call functionality

I don't necessarily agree with this, because this is the direction that everything is moving towards.

It is so much cheaper to embed an SOC into everything that needs some form of automated/assisted control. Not necessarily a good thing, but that's what is going to happen regardless.

Your fridge can become a pocket computer with refrigerating capability - but you'll still see it as a fridge. It's really about how you see and utilize these items.

Indeed! Half seriously, we just need thermoelectric generators to get efficient enough, and then our phones can be powered directly from our body heat, and also refrigerate us on a hot day!
