"* Portable music players, subsumed by smart 'phones"

Speak for yourself. I would love to have the iPod return. My current iPod is kept in my car so that when I start it up, my playlist picks up where it left off. The iPhone may be able to do what the iPod does, but it is not an iPod replacement. And never will be. The iPod had one purpose, which makes it ideal for leaving it connected to your car's stereo. With an iPhone, you have to reconnect it; with an iPod you can leave it connected.
