- When you don't use it as a phone, simply plugin the HDMI (dock version into iPhone) and go into AppleTV mode (possibly via an Apple-TV app).

- It has more storage than AppleTV (which doesn't really need any)

- It already has your music/ movies on it.

- You could use it as a gaming console to your TV.

- It could save space and unnecessary additional device as the AppleTV doesn't have much to offer hardware-wise, it's basically a cpu/ drive loaded with the AppleTV OS connected to the iTunes store and other internet streaming services (Netflix, Youtube, radio, etc)

- You can use the iTunes/ App store to get more content or games connected to your TV.

I don't get it why Steve Jobso didn't do this already if he's all for simplifying/ reduction.

The iPhone really can become everything.
