McLuhan: "As a result, precisely at the point where a new media-induced environment becomes all pervasive and transmogrifies our sensory balance, it also becomes invisible." So, we're still a century or so away from this with regard to smart phones etc. TV barely reached this point before it went into decline (http://www.nytimes.com/2011/05/03/business/media/03television.html?_r=0 http://www.nytimes.com/2011/05/03/business/media/03televisio...). Newspapers did, quite likely, as did radio. So long as people complain about how devices are changing us, they are not invisible, so anyone engaged in critical commentary (at least in the popular press) is proof that we are nowhere near this boundary. Wearables may change the timeline for ubiquitous computing, but again: so long as there is hand-wringing about how the technology is changing us, this transformation is not complete.
