My opinion is that we will use these devices and their features as tools. We'll get as used to having them nearby as we do other tools. We'll use them when we need them.
One of the amazing things about smart phones and tablets is that they are so flexible. Because we load whatever software we need, they are the ultimate multi-function gadget.
Depending on the time of day I may want to:
- Catch up on news - use the web browser or USA Today app
- Listen to a radio scanner to see where the sirens are going - use a radio scanner app
- Read a book - Kindle app
- Find my way - GPS app
See ?
These devices are almost blank slates that can change to what we need when we need it.
