      I don't think it would be hugely different in most fields (publishing not being one of them.) I'd say that cell phones and cable/satellite TV have had a far bigger impact on society. Watching detectives in old reruns searching for pay phones cracks me up.

            i figure i will become a shoe cobbler if that is the case since, as long as there are women, there will be a demand for shoes. and lots of them. the pricier, the better. :cool:

                Um why? I'm not interested in paying for a *shiny* interface when equivalent or better products are available elsewhere for less money. For my money Archos media players have been blowing away the iPods for years. I will say the Iphone has the best mobile browser I've seen but that's like coming in 1st in a turd polishing competition. I'm not interested in browsing the web on a 4 inch screen. Do they still make computers? :)

                    I've never had an iPhone; no interest. However, I do like my Archos.
