I don't think I made my point clear. If tech is now cheap and useful, it has become boring. If you wait 5 years, it's not delayed gratification because you won't experience the fun of playing with new tech, because it's not new anymore.
The whole gratification part comes from playing with the bleeding edge. It comes with dreaming of what this tech could become.

Early adopters are like investors who don't receive any equity. They pay for the R&D etc that people like me later get to benefit from.
