I don't know if Google glasses are the next big thing i.e. new platform but that's the kind of revolutionary thing that breaks the phone wars logjam.
There will always be breakthroughs. There was a time when camera and video functions were added to goofy looking flip phones, ten-ish years ago, and people went "Wow, phones can officially do everything!"

Granted, it was mostly the older generations who said that, but still, the point is it always looks like they've covered it all in phones, until the next thing happens and everyone goes "wow, this is the future of phones".
