Sorry if I scared anyone, never was my intent.
For me, it's less of a religion thing than usability. I like to have both the overview and some detail when I look at a screen, without having to zoom around, most mobile keyboards are either crippled or too small, and the iPhones touchscreen keyboard is just too slow. Thus, for truly mobile access, I'd rather have a nice, little netbook and a GPRS adapter, than just a mobile phone.
