This might be interesting: mozilla and a web-centric phone os.  If they
really do move the phone world from apps back to webapps, that would be a
good thing, I think.  At least if they could give the same quality of user
experience as a native app.

I've never been comfortable with the app revolution, moving away from
html5/css/javascript.  Maybe naive of me.  But in terms of security, a
whole new set of "logins" on non-web software makes reasonable
authentication (Persona & Google's Kill the Password device) harder .. lets
keep to the browser, even as an OS.
