Think PDA, phone handset, 'thin client' (terminal) and the heavy-hitters for
storage and computation located somewhere else on the network.

Sure - the need is being filled with WinCE, Palm, Symbian, even stripped-down
Linux already.

But if ever there was a market born to take best advantage of Plan9's long suit,
handheld, or 'wearable' has to be the most obvious contender, and on power nd
bandwidth consumption as much as CPU cycles or 'local' RAM capacity.

You have to be nuts to use Plan 9 for such things when you can use Inferno.
