Is the end of syncing coming?

It seems like syncing devices (except for Ipods) will soon be replaced by feeds and ical type applications. I know that I get ical type feeds in Google calendar and backpack and they can be sent directly to my phone via text or to GMail and Google Reader accounts. Since many smart phones/PDA’s and certainly the Iphone, all have nice web browsing and web functionality these days; why would we continue to need to physically sync a device to our desktop or laptop. I’m sure it won’t fade away that fast, but it might go away a little quicker that the VCR.
