I see that all as gradual changes, even the Internet took a couple years to really take hold. The day we saw the iPhone it instantly made all UI obsolete. I'm not even a big fan of Apple, but I just find how extreme and fast it changed everything to be really amazing.
I wonder also if the acceleration of acceleration is happening. It took, what... 15-20 years for home computers to be adopted in the mainstream? and maybe 5-10 for the internet, and then 1-2 for the iPhone? does that make sense? I'm just musing here... I could just be off my rocker.
