Along with desktops and laptops as a whole.  I know people with a tablet 
or smartphone who have not replaced the laptop they no longer use in 
several years.  The laptop market will continue to fade slowly, teh 
desktop market will continue to fade steeply and these two will become 
niches (probably already are).  Smartphones and tablets will grow and 
level off, to be replaced when Google Glass type products take over the 
marketplace, to themselves be replaced when implantable computing takes 
over.
