What do you feel you need to manage your business when away from the office, like when you head to the shows or even on holidays? Are the new palm pilots, iphones, etc a better way to not needing your laptop?

I'm not one to dive after new tech toys, but I have to admit I'm drooling on the new iphones! Just seems it'd be lots more convenient than lugging around a laptop everywhere.
giving this a bump - good topic Luke!
I used to have a palm treo that I would use for "local" remote work, ie, heading out around town I would get paged for a server issue and I could work on it via the palm treo on GPRS, but that was very slow internet access and the small screen made it difficult to do anything except urgent stuff.
But now there is a host of new mini-laptops, smart phones and pc tablets. Plus most peoples main laptops are growing as they are really desktop replacements., making them less portable.
But is it worth it to get one of these new solutions, or just slug around that 17" laptop?
