Asymco's Horace Dediu puts adoption of smartphones in context in his Seeing What’s Next post where he plots few other technologies and the time they took to grow from 10% to 90% penetration within the US market... This nearly 200 year vista is lovely, especially his addition of (a) blue bars = tech growth pulses with start year and duration, and (b) green bars = life expectancy of Americans in years.
