“Apple’s iPhone has dominated the smart-phone market the past couple of years, tearing down would be ‘iPhone killers’ almost on a monthly basis. This could soon change with the new Droid. Coupled with Google’s open-source software, Verizon’s blazing network and Motorola’s new-age design, the Droid makes for a powerful Apple-directed dagger.”

“Though it’s likely to be two to three years down the road before all the kinks are ironed out, the iPhone could go the way of the Mac - very cool, with fading total demand.”

“The development of mobile phones will be similar in PCs. Even with the Mac, Apple has attracted much attention at first, but they have still remained a niche manufacturer. That will be in mobile phones as well.”

Sadly, I have to agree about the inevitable (?) decline of Apple. I have recently been researching the new iPad alternatives such as the Amazon Fire, and recently had a look at the new Kobo offerings in WH Smith - not bad at all, and look at the price.
How about the new Google Chromebook laptop for £229? SSD hard drive, but who needs a huge memory in these days of a spreading cloud? The screen is only 11", but this is the same as my MacBook Air and perfectly adequate for most purposes.
I wonder what others think?
Hopefully this will start a good debate. I would like to see this forum coming back to life, together with the podcast too of course!

A discussion for another thread I think.

“Google phone Nexus One, whose launch is one of the most-awaited ones in 2010, boasts of tech specs that make iPhone look like a wimp. Wow! Other smartphones, especially iPhone, better watch out for Nexus One because it looks like one nasty, hungry beast on the prowl. Besides, we all hate blood spills.” Nick Brown, IB Times, 30 Dec 2009
