@BenedictEvans @BenBajarin Pretty sure this already happened. Isn't there a significant number of old Blackberries and Nokias in use?

@dtellom@BenBajarin they don't count. Look at the chart -
@BenedictEvans@BenBajarin Uhm, that's precisely the reason for my question, because I looked. -
@dtellom there's a label on the chart -
@BenedictEvans Again, I know how to read a chart, thus my question regarding your tweet about "all smartphones in use on earth". -
@dtellom@BenedictEvans Then perhaps it should have said "all relevant smartphones in use on earth"? :) -
@scottgfx@BenedictEvans Perhaps, but then should compare with relevant PCs in use (i.e. Macs) :) -
@dtellom@BenedictEvans That's part of the innovators dilemma. Apple is disrupting themselves. Better than having someone do it for them. - 5 more replies
