Mtrader,
I did not say that the US was in recession. I just asked if folks believe that smart phones are recession proof. Meaning will PALM, AAPL and RIMM continue to do well in a recessionary envirionment.
I have seen poor as$ people in 3rd world countries with cell phones. How can they afford it when they can barely feed themselves and their kids? It's sick, but they will have a phone.
Thanks but smart phones are a tad more expensive then the run of the mill cell phone. I appreciate your response.
I understand that SP are expensive and these people are poor. So cell phones are expensive to these people but they still can't live without them. It is a toy. They need it. It makes them feel important.
