Yeah. "Pure rubbish." Whatever. :roll:
<Momentary Rant About Statistics>:
Only 40% of IT Managers? How do they know? These type of statistics are so inaccurate by nature it's not even funny. Did they interview every IT manager in their country/world? Just because you interview 500 people, for example, and 60% of them don't like Smartphones, doesn't mean that's what the rest of that particular demographic in the country/world think. You can't apply that to the rest of the world. This is how they come up with stats and they're so terribly flawed. Ever seen the "Truth" anti-cigarette ads on TV? The consistency of their statistics is awful. Or how about everytime you hear about the 'number one killer in "whatever country you happen to live in"'. Everything is the number one killer according to whatever is being talked about. How can that be? I'm not saying that all stats are inaccurate, but these types of stats just can't be trusted. People accept stats because they can't do anything to come up with better answers.
<End rant>
Smartphones will be just as important a part of business as anything else. I'm sure people said the same thing about fax machines, computers, regular cell phones, and handhelds when they first arrived on the scene. They said that about the 'Information Superhighway', too. Smartphones are the newest kid on the block so they're going to be teased for awhile before they're accepted.
Everytime I hear these stupid opinions of rejection about a clearly useful technology, it goes in one ear and out the other.
None of these dummies have any vision, and they clearly don't understand the technology and how it will serve mankind.
One day, most homes and automobiles, along with every computer, handheld, and phone device will be connected to the internet and other networks, and will send and receive data, audio, graphics, photos, video, TV and radio (freewave or satellite), along with voice calls (don't just think cellular, also think VoIP), and will have worldwide connections. I think a lot of people are aware of this. It's just a matter of time, so embrace and ride the wave.
Technology is only going to advance, not stagnate and stay put. One thing's for sure - a lot of people don't like change, so they'll always have something to say as technology advances.
