The key mobile trends emerging from CES 2011

Compared to the Forbes report published here a couple of days back, this report looks only at mobility related trends. 4G networks are coming, smartphone could become smart enough to be the only device to be carried by consumers. If need be you could dock it with a larger screen, keyboard etc.Products are coming out that are smartphone and yet powerful enough to do double duty as a computing device and then dock with thos things if needed. Motorola Atrix, RIM Playbook etc. are some examples.

On the other side Android Honeycomb that can handle multi core ( in fact, it would require multi core processors) are going to barge into this integrated space too if they have enough communication savvy to connect to 3G and 4G networks! I am happy that, when one or the other happens, there will be only onedevice to carry rather than we trying to juggle several of them!
