It is in their interest to stabilize the market after the turmoil.

Yes, I think that the cycles will continue to be fairly long. Of course, the next one could be only 10 years or so as everything tends to move faster in the world. But if 3+ billion users first change to the next dominant paradigm, it will take time for the next one. The other option is of course that fragmentation will increase and there will be several dominant designs. My view is that the fragmentation happens only in the early adopter segments, but majority will go for the most popular UI. Thanks, Jukka!

Congratulations for applying practical out-of-the-box thinking and doing by now seeing the world outside mother-Nokia :) One comment: do you really think that the next iconic interface solutions will last 10 to 20 years? I guess within such time frame there will be several paradigm shifts driven by technology -- so a series of iconic-to-come solutions. Nice summary Panu.
