19. CONCLUSION
It's been three years since Apple brought the smartphone to a
mass consumer market, but smartphones have actually been
around in one form or another since 1993. The difference
between then and now is that early smartphones were
primarily used as enterprise devices and were prohibitively
expensive for most consumers. But with the enormous
success of the iPhone, carriers have discovered that they can
lock in customers for long periods of time by heavily
subsidizing their purchases of the latest and hottest
smartphones. In this slideshow we have tracked the evolution
of the smartphone, from its humble beginnings as a clunky
monochrome device to today's sleek multimedia devices
capable of supporting HD video.
