To add to you three reasons, the smartphones just can't handle some of the software that is needed, especially if you are trying to run a business.

I tried with no success. I think a PC may be mandatory for that. Am I wrong or is it also impossible to pay bills on a mobile. I tried with no success. I think a PC may be mandatory for that.

Since I'm just 25 maybe I will be able to in the future like another 20 years from now. By than maybe things will be a while lot faster and more realible. There is no way I could go 100% mobile.

The PC, whether it be in Mac, desktop, laptop or netbook form is a 'work horse' - mobile is mobile with a lot less less features than the traditional PC. Example: Video editing, audio editing, 3D design, computer-aided design and web design are at this point impossible to do mobile - you need a PC of some form to pull it off. Until the time comes that you can check off features that are, at this moment and will be in years to come, impossible to do with a smart phone, going completely mobile is absurd really. If anyone thinks they can truly go mobile and still do things on their smart phone that are reserved for PC's only have rocks in their head.

The screens are too small B. The UI ,especially the PHYSICAL UI, is simply too clunky. And if I want to use a smooth UI - both physical and graphical - then I'll be paying about as much as I would for a nice full-fledged laptop! It'll never happen. Portability and usabilty will always conflict with one another. My two issues with going completely mobile are that
