I don't think you're seeing the whole picture...
Sure, smartphones are $300 and up...for the most current model. But how about for older models? Used devices? Or the new ultra-cheap laptops and tablets that India has been furiously working on?

Sure, the iPhone 4S won't be the device of choice in the developing world. But the trickle-down devices (many of them running open-source Android) most certainly will. And that will take computing power to the developing world in ways that a desktop or laptop never could.
