I think that BT fits right in for the LC/LC+ line. I don't even have an issue with it being included on new Legacy stuff. I start to draw the line when they remove features that I currently have with the Legacy remote, why would I buy Legacy stuff if it was going to be run like LC stuff? I also don't like the touch screen for all the control, that is harder to manipulate than having real keys and knobs. I can easily run trains with one hand with the CAB1-L, but it's a whole lot harder with the smartphone.

With one hand, and without needing to look at the remote. I want to watch the train while controlling if I can. I can't do that with the phone.

I think it's a no brainer for them to go this route for various reasons mentioned by others abovr, but I am not looking forward to it replacing the Legacy and dcs handhelds.
