In addition to tracking all your wireless calls (as ordinary cell phones do), it also geotags all the photos and videos you take, and it takes the history of all the music you've played while mobile and imports it back to your iTunes library - and those are just the Apple applications, that's not including using the accelerometer as a pedometer or any of the other productivity applications, bar code scanners, augmented reality interfaces... As newer models are developed, by Apple and by others, they'll start recording more and more data of various kinds until we get to a point where everyone is recording full HD audio and video all the time. The future is more data, more data, and more data. This is also why SpeakerText is a cool app; it adds more data to the stream.
