The Next Phase of Mobile

Intelligence will come, not just to our pocket computers, but the things we wear and even the things we ride in and mobile devices will act as the primary access points for nearly all types of personal computing.

The first phase of mobile is nearly complete.

Two billion people are now connected to the internet with a pocket computer.

More people use their smartphones to regularly access and interact with the internet, software, and services than PCs.

The PC’s growth is flat to declining and likely has found its niche as a business/hyper-productivity tool. The larger world has moved beyond the PC. The first phase of mobile was bringing it to the developed world in countries like the US, Japan/South Korea, UK/Europe, and tier 1-3 China.

We are nearing the end of this phase and it is time to look to where the next phase of mobile will take us.
