The future is here. Those hand-held devices that have been wished for, written about for decades and portrayed in movies and on TV (think Star Trek, for example) are here. And not only are they here, they’re usurping the PC in rapid order. MoovWeb recently released a Post-PC Infographic that describes a so-called “Post-PC Revolution,” which has
