[the entire post is worth reading; highlights follow] "We will NEVER see the perfect mobile device from an ergonomic standpoint... We must have better end to end security... User interfaces will become more customized at the same time that corporations take greater control of their device offerings and permissions... Messaging solutions are going to become more robust, more comprehensive and more malleable for the convenience of the user... WiFi and Cellular will merge to form a complete communication ecosystem... Location Based Services will be 'Huge Huge Huge' for both business and personal use... Your Mobile Will Become Your Wallet... Linux is stable, scalable, at the heart of a vast number of enterprises already, and, the kicker; there are tens of thousands of excellent Linux developers already. When these developers realize how much money there is to be made writing for mobile you'll see a proliferation of novel applications that itself will drive adoption."
