Thanks for a great comment, I agree with much stuff you say.

Yes we will see many of the old players starting to fall off. Especially the ones who doesn't have the quickness to adapt. Both Samsung and Apple has plenty of liquid money to last a very long time in the industry. The profits by selling devices will probably shrink and they will try to create more revenue with better software experiences to up-sell people stuff!

The companies that will last is the ones who will focus more on creating a better customer experience. Something that makes people feel more special. Customer loyality is changing a lot in these Internet times. People expect so much more from a company. That they actually care about you as a person.
