Oh but it does... hot swapping all the way!

Not electromagnetically... Although it's very convenient, it seems very insecure with this level of ease when swapping.

Yeah only the market for a modular phone would probably be 1000x smaller then the market for PCs.

I don't really see a whole lot of customization here besides adding a bunch of redundant pieces on phone.

I'd rather buy a Lego iPhone case and build on that.

Not really, phones/tablets are incredibly popular...dare I say even more so than PC's. Only a matter of time before a custom market opens up.

Phones are understandable because almost everyone above the age of 12 has a phone.

But you can't count on a phone to do computer things.

Tablets may be able to but not very well.

I'm assuming their counter argument will be that computers and phones are essentially the same thing. While I agree with this because it's a fact, consumers don't even consider it because they see the two as completely different devices that serve different purposes.

You will get to design and make your own mods

I never said it would replace computer things, not yet anyway, but technically it's possible. I haven't really followed it but if you can dock your phone and have it output to your monitor (im sure this is possible, right?) you'd just need to couple it to a bluetooth keyboard & mouse (they have those too, right? for phones? no? damn :() and you basically have a PC.
