Predictions 2013 Smartphone use

From Deloitte CIO Journal 

“In 2013, Deloitte predicts that global shipments of smartphones, defined as any device with a full touch screen or a QWERTY keyboard, should exceed one billion units for the first time. The installed base of all smartphones, per this definition, is likely to be close to two billion devices by year-end. As the base grows, usage is likely to stratify further. The absolute number of those exploiting the full breadth of a smartphone's capability is likely to increase, but the proportion and absolute number of those using only the basic functionality of a smartphone - voice, text and photos - is also likely to rise.”
