All of this is likely true, but there are educational markets (higher
ed, adult distance learning, etc.) where the "panacea" of web based
course materials is still in vogue and where it might actually work.
Mind you, like everyone on this list (I suspect), I'm well aware of
the limitations of web delivery. But the people above me who make
the decisions--the folks who are, frankly, only marginally computer
literate--still see it as a panacea. Some of them are "educable,"
i.e. can be convinced of the reasons why truly interactive apps are
better developed as standalone apps, but many may never see the light.

For the education market, just think like this, Using a browser
will restrict your app in the browser pluging window and the popups
it spawns, if the kids in America are like the kids here in Brazil,
great chance that in the first minute the teacher turns its back,
they will all open another flap in their browsers and start
chatting, playing games, and just browse their fav sites, oh, and
email all their buddies, and there's nothing you'll be able to do.
