As for the majority... more than 50% of all phones sold now are smart phones. Soon everyone, everywhere will have one.
Ah, now I understand: you've drunk the Kool-Aid.
No, NOT everyone will have one. Not everyone *wants* one. Try looking at the surveys that happen every year or two, and something like 2/3rds of older Americans, and a good percentage of younger, only want A PHONE THAT WORKS, so that they can call someone and do this thing called "talk". They don't want to screw around with a phone.
And that's not going to change... unless, as I said yesterday, you, personally, want to spring the money out of your pocket for, say, me to have eye surgery, so I get 15/20 vision, so I can *read* the friggin' email at 4 point type.
