It depends on the system being used. Function is directly tied to the UI, and Android is a fully functional touch UI.
A physical keyboard is simply a matter of preference, but I wouldn't make the argument that it adds inherent function. If it's more impractical for a user, it detracts from it, actually.
Not seeing where the debate is. The D3 has a keyboard, so can interact with more content (Flash being an example, since a lot of it needs key inputs). Also more functional with number row on keyboard, rather than using a VKB. This is fact, regardless if you use it or not. Personal preference does not detract from this.
You folks are pushing semantics as absolutes, but whatever makes you happy is cool.
