yes, certainly smartphones have made an excellent breakthrough last year. I think china manufacturers has lot to do with that and I bet companies like Huawei and Privileg are responsible for a good portion of this 87%, as they made smarphones affordable to people in developing country, allowing local mobile operators to brand them and distribute them for under $200 a piece.
personally, i don't like writing on my phone - he keeps correcting me! If i was looking for such a feature, I would have carried around my father...

>smartphones have made an excellent breakthroughI was thinking the same about tablets. If I didnt have to
work on one, I think I could be happy just surfing on my phone or tablet.

I think that is the crux. I've got a few customers who keep telling me I should get an iPad (for referecen - that will
never happen). They don't seem to realise thought that some of us have to actually do the hard slog that pays for their fondle-slabs.
Using the swype keyboard on my android phone I can reasonably happily knock out a blog post on a train or similar. I wouldn't want to go much further than that though. Anything beyond that I want a proper keyboard for though.
However I can see the appeal for some. My wife is a consumer only of web. I'd consider something keyboardless for her when I replace her laptop.
