Trends: Laptops and Cellphones Dominate
About a month ago, it was reported that in the third quarter of 2008, sales of laptop computers exceeded desktop sales for the first time ever. A similar phenomenon has been taking place for phone preferences, as the BLS now reports that:
In 2001, the ratio of spending on residential phone services to spending on cellular phone services was greater than 3 to 1 (see chart above). In 2007, cellular phone expenditures accounted for 55% of total telephone expenditures compared to 43% for residential phone expenditures.

I think you might want to edit the title of this post to Laptops and Cellphones Dominate
Thanks, it's fixed.
How soon I wonder will the cell phone/blackberry type equipment replace the the laptop/notebook computer?
It seems that the possibility might be just around the corner...
