I feel there is a chance that fewer smartphones like the Samsung Galaxy Note will still come with a stylus pen in the future. User will need to buy a stylus pen separately for smartphones like the Samsung Galaxy Note since not everyone wants a Stylus pen, and some people may already own a stylus pen from an old Smartphone. A lot of people are also fine with using cheaper $1 to $5 Stylus pens for basic tasks like clicking on web links and buttons, so a more expensive Stylus is not always needed.
I agree most people don't use stylus because it is an hassle. I think as touchscreens become more precise and responsive at tracking finger movement, the stylus may not be needed for sketches.
Well, most likely.
Though I don't really use stylus pen all that much. I know that it's good and efficient and all....but I am just not comfortable with it.
