Are all consumer electronics starting to become the same?
Do you have the impression that many consumer electronics are becoming different forms of the same thing? Examples.
Computers (desktops, laptops) are being replaced by tablets.
Televisions are becoming "smart TVs" - another name for very large tablets
Phones - just a small tablet
GPS units - are just phones
Still photo cameras and video cameras - just phones
MP3 players and radios - just your phone
