Dan,

I don't think this negates the fundamental truth of my core
position here: this kind of app, perhaps with additional
infrastructure improvement, is the wave of the future

I don't doubt your enthusiasm; but I do believe you downplay the desire of businesses (and perhaps individuals) to keep sensitive, proprietary data in-house.

Another comment is this: I can't count the number of "waves of the future" (eg: "distributed processing", multiple processors) that never hit the real-world beaches of most computer users. So many of the new concepts don't seem to be realized outside of a limited number of very large organizations or specialized markets.

My current wave of the future is the Tablet PC, with or without desktop apps.
