When I went on a trip in the early 2000s, I took a phone, a satnav, an MP3 player, a camera and for longer trips a netbook with a UMTS stick (3G modem you could plug into a USB port). Plus all the associated chargers, cables and other gubbins. I felt really cool and modern with my huge, clunky tech bag. Now that seems quaint and outdated. I wonder if people will feel the same about smartphones in 20 years.
