Yesterday I saw the future

I was driving home from work yesterday afternoon when I saw two young girls sitting cross legged on the sidewalk under a shade tree. One had her phone balanced on her left knee and her friend was right beside her leaned over to watch her friend's phone. They were watching a video! What could be more private than sharing a video with your friend? Away from home and parents just the two of them. Like Steve Jobs said, this is the "post PC world". Anytime this phrase is mentioned the PC guys comment with rage. I don't think they get what the phrase is all about. There will still be desktop PCs there will still be laptops but I think they will go the way of the mainframe. Not long ago laptops surpassed desktops in sales and in no time smart phones blew by them both. The personal communication device is the future whether you like it or not. I intend to be a part of that future so I'm going out later today and buying an Android phone. I would buy an iPhone in a minute but the carriers want a small fortune for the data plans and I am ever the tightwad.
