The Question and Answer Board

Fwiw - I don't think that any amount of marketing could force a worldwide trend unless there were merits to it and consumers found it valuable. For example, myself. For the most part I use my phone to text and talk, quick access to information or directions - that's it. Edit: Oh, and as a timer sometimes.

Friends, family, people I see everywhere are accessing all sorts of devices all the time. Yes, they often work from a laptop or desktop, but they're still on their devices as well i.e. responding to texts, looking at alerts, etc. that arrive on mobile devices. And, when they're not working, if they're not gaming, their laptop isn't open and desktop likely isn't even on.

I know you believe it to be some giant marketing gimmick, but that's not what I see with my own eyes. So, I guess we'll just have to agree to disagree because I only see mobile devices being used more frequently and in more interesting ways in the future.
