  Basically, I don’t think think monthly cost of ownership is a good metric for value.

  I probably used an old cell phone maybe 3 hours a week. I use my smartphone at least 3 hours a day communicating with people, reading news, studying, games for kids, work, etc. I don’t think monthly cost of ownership reflects the value that those devices bring me. Your table needs a different column that measures the value more appropriately. Perhaps ownership cost per hour of usage?

  You have another issue in that smartphones replace cameras, radios/Walkmen, maps, and even laptops I’m many cases. An iphone doesn’t just replace an old Nokia, it replaces all those other items as well.

  I don’t think you need more rows, you need different columns.
