It seems to me that the ability to do a hard reset is very useful. This is lacking in desktop computers: if they get screwed up (and it's sooo easy to do) only an expert can get the computer back to a working state. The ability to get your device back to factory settings (and then get your stuff back through synchronisation) is very useful for non-technies. This sort of approach is how I see computers going as they become more like consoles in future.
