When it is all said and done, MFP's are ubiquitous to the small business owner. They don't have resources or space to buy a separate printer/fax/scanner. It just makes more sense from a cost standpoint that our devices all go this way. Look at the smart phone today. People aren't buying dumb phones and a tablet separately because they want it all in one device and they want it now. Taking your smart phone to a dock so you can use it in the office is the next logical extension of the device. Not everything will be in the cloud because their are too many things that require tighter security than the cloud can offer companies. All in one is inevitable, look at the MS OS itself. It's business model was successful because it took the best of what was out there and put it all into the OS. Everyone really wants one device that does it all. Data backup will keep up so if a device is lost, everything can be reloaded on another device leaving the client down a minimum of time.
