You are putting a negative spin on it. Geolocation is hot and has many
applications. Telling someone that they will never be lost or
bewildered in an unfamiliar neighborhood is a fantastic selling point.
It is a very positive benefit. I have read several stories about
people using their smart phones to get quick medical help. The same
app that finds you pizza can also find you a physician.

But much of the marketing for smartphones concerns just such
convenience issues as picking a restaurant (or a store, or some
other way of consuming); so this isn't my idea. In nearly all the
commercials I've seen, convenience and consumption are the main
selling points of smartphones and portable smart devices.
