'These days, who carries a laptop unless you are a businessman?'
I read the line featured in the graphic above this past Tuesday in Richard Waters' Financial Times article.
Then Wednesday came a USA Today story by Jon Swartz in which he wrote, "Forrester Research analyst Charles Golvin predicts that the next huge wave of Internet users... will predominantly use smartphones instead of PCs."
More: "'Lots of people, particularly younger ones, don't want to be tethered to a desktop or even a netbook,' says Michael Osterman, an independent analyst."
And the headline up top, a quote from Kevin Lomax, a 29-year-old singer/songwriter/producer in New York who "... uses an iPhone and Palm Pre to post songs on his MocoSpace page, where he has 4,000 fans."
Sounds like it's past time for me to hop on the iPhone cluetrain, what?

I finally drank the Kool-Aid about 10 days ago and jumped into the iPhone fray. It -is- an incredible device. Alone, the various components might not be earth-shattering, but the integration of everything into one tiny package is powerful. I'm enthralled with some of the innovative uses that the apps developers are finding for the iPhone, especially centering around the use of the camera.
And as a total newbie to text messaging, I'm finding that much more useful than I had imagined.
