Smart phone shipments top PCs for the first time ever

We have reached a very interesting inflection point: more smartphones are shipped every day than PCs. This is radically changing the way applications should be designed, distributed and consumed. Developers are already designing their applications with a mobile interface first. With the back-end moving to the cloud and the front-end to mobile devices, we are at a very important junction in the world of IT. On a less serious note, there are now more Apple iPhones sold per second than there are babies born in the world.
