According to Gartner, the smartphone has moved from being a cool "gadget" to a necessity. Sales are expected to increase by 25% this year, due in large part to the releases of the Palm Pre and Apple 3GS.
Having spent months reviewing consumer trends and research data on the mobile industry, the latest news from Gartner comes to me as no surprise. The mobile phone has become so much more than a cool piece of technology. Being connected to email, social media, SMS and other digital media has quickly become the social expectation.
