Dan you have hit the nail on the head...it's goin to all revolve around your vehicle with blue tooth and the iPhone will get a little larger and scale down the iPad and eventually the two will merge...another reason apple has such a market is something like 95% of viruses are made to attack a window os and very few viruses are out there for the apple os. I think a lot of the future of storage are going to be in"clouds" my brother got the new kindle and amazon has a cloud storage system. But I'm of the era where I want an external hard drive to backup. The wife got a toshiba hd with a sector built in that even if the drive does crash they can still retrieve what was on the drive. And the iPhone 5 will be out soon also and they have a new platform coming out with the MacBooks
