I view smart phones useful for granting you the ability to do limited
work in places that you wouldn't normally be able to do work (car, in
between meetings, etc.) for whatever reason.  Basically any time it's
impractical/impossible to sit down at a work station or pull out a
laptop.  That said, I think that it provides a rather useful
separation of social media versus productivity tools for me because I
can relegate social media to the phone and it's not tempting.

On another note, I see netbooks going away in favor the iPad model in
a few years.  Still a nice platform for rich client apps with the
potential for some cool UI elements.

Regards,

Nate
