"it is likely not just the phones."

Most likely.

As I see things, the future will be communication platform based...i.e.. phone, or USB type connections where the all in one device will prevail.

IMO, one of the considered reasons for a one time fee for the stand alone device population, is that manufactures of these stand alone devices, other than explicit items, will dissolve into a hand full of manufacturers that have in roads to communication platforms....I hope that is what we are building with Xlicensing.

The only thing DM and e.Digital have to worry about are serving companies before they dissolve.....and make sure that e.Digital is about the future and not the past.

We are in the midst of change, which relates mainly to how people want to communicate.....we are fortunate to be able to look back and collect to some degree....however, with regard to e.Digitals tech, the future should be more important fore it is legacy friendly.
