Smartphone Adoption Continues to Grow
Over 80% of world’s population has a mobile phone
But only ~1/4th of the world’s population has a smartphone
Smartphone adoption still has huge upside for global penetration
Tablet Growth Faster Than Smartphones
Tablet shipments surpassed DT/NB PC’s in Q4-12
< 3 Yrs from Intro!
Large Screen Computing Device Demand is strong
Mix favors Tablets, not PC’s
