I would love this to be an unintended outcome from all this. However, I don't think that's where we're headed.

I, for one, think there's a lot of slop in and around the engineering of phones. We might see a lot more software, storage, and overall activity crunched, compressed, and crammed into our portable devices instead. And with more stuff in the cloud/SaaS realm, they can also become (even) thinner clients at the same time. :(

It's "heavier" gear like laptops and desktops that'll probably get pushed into the pro and "prosumer" market.
