Pondering ICT as you do, I'm guessing that mobile phones in future will
be Decision Support Systems as well as communications and entertainment. 


"A Decision Support System (DSS) is an interactive computer-based system 
or subsystem intended to help decision makers use communications 
technologies, and data, documents, knowledge and/or models to identify 
and solve problems, complete decision process tasks, and make decisions. 

Decision Support System is a general term for any computer application 
that enhances a person or group’s ability to make decisions. Also, 
Decision Support Systems refers to an academic field of research that 
involves designing and studying Decision Support Systems in their context 
of use. 

Decision Support Systems are a class of computerized information system 
that support decision-making activities."  http://dssresources.com
