Bill, I was thinking along the same lines as Steve.  Using Fossil to keep track 
of user changes giving a timeline view of their changes.  They wouldn't even 
know Fossil is there.

I could also see taking presentation on an Android Tablet or IPad and being 
able to access multiple versions to use in presenting from the tablet (which I 
know a couple of people who take presentations on their IPads now.  I remember 
Richard Hipp uses Fossil to keep all versions of his presentations.  He could 
use software on the IPad to present and make some small changes and update his 
repository on the IPad then sync when you get home.  I could see the same use 
for Android tablets (even phones) as well.

JRuby runs on Android using Ruboto, I could see taking ruby scripts in a 
repository and potentially using a tablet to edit and deploy them when visiting 
a location.  Of course if I update ruby or any language in the field I don't 
want those updates not to be part of my repository.

Given time many people could come up with other uses for Fossil on iOS and 
Android.  It would also be a feature that I don't of in any other SCM system.
