The whole electronics market is deflationary, and it's doing just fine.

  I don't see anyone seriously suggesting to use electronics as a trade medium.

    The point is that your US Dollars, which are a trade medium, are increasing in purchasing power vs. electronics every year, yet people still buy electronics and computers. So the claim that people won't spend a currency because they can hold onto it and buy more of that same good, is debunked by the success of electronics and particularly computers and smart phones. The iPhone 7 is three times faster than the one 2 years ago. People have worked out that there's value in having the product even though a cheaper one will come in the future.
