Bluetooth and Wifi

Hello, welcome to wire'less' world. I recently bought Motorola S305 bluetooth stereo headset. It is good one..!Enjoying.

   I have android G-i5801,samsung galaxy 3 mobile. Interesting thing is that it has wifi,bluetooth and lots of application (available in android market). 

My head cracked yesterday..! You know why, battery is 60% in  half an hour!! Before having headset I was to use only wifi and now adding bluetooth stereo headset, the mobile is more power hungry. 

I am thinking, if  wifi and bluetooth are of operating at  same frequency(with different protocols:it is a group of software programs which controls the hardware) why can not both share the same hardware? If we are able to share the hardware,whatever, complexity within the protocols can be compromised in the coding. I believe that if we make some changes in design, wifi can acts a bluetooth or wifi with a single hardware. Power will be saved, silicon area will be saved, $s will be saved.

Anybody have counter argument for this? Your suggestions are most welcomed.
