Now that smartphone design appears to be set in stone (black touchscreen rectangle), what is there to differentiate phones and actually provide a compelling reason to upgrade to something new?

So last week my blog was hacked and all the content deleted. I’m slowly restoring it all. Normal service will be resumed 🙂
This blog post was prompted by the launch of the Apple iPad Mini. I’ll wait until I’ve had a chance to use one before I pass comment on how good it actually is. It started me thinking though on where the next breakthrough category of devices and interactions is going to come from.
