You could make a nearly identical argument for PCs vs. consoles, yet they co-exist.

I'll be a monkey's uncle. Gekko makes a point that seems well-rounded, and doesn't insult anyone in the process.

Kudos to you. Kudos to you.

I really don't think the comparison holds water. Consoles have a much lower entry cost than PC's yet still offer a comparable gaming experience. Smartphones offer way more than just games, it's something you're probably already going to buy, and ultimately with a price that's comparable.

Then again, I'm not saying they can't coexist. I'm just saying that they're going to have to innovate to compete.
