You got to love the IT profession. Cloud computing comes out, and we try to run everything off of it. Mobile seems to be the next thing that every vendor is trying to target. Will I be developing a full blown applications off of my phone.... I dont think so. There is a place for everything.

+1 on the pass

Edit...

Cloud computing on Telkom's so called fast internet 384kb.... hmmm leaves much to be desired.

Where did the author of this article get his facts from? How can he possibly know that "most new apps are being developed for the web"?

I build a lot of web based apps and use Eclipse for my development, so I'll definitely be checking this out.

i guess it's possible for it to work if it has some kind of gears-like html5 local db with online/offline support. and lots of ajax.
still get the feeling that it will be a bit clunky, but i'm always interested in something new.
if there was built in support for github / bitbucket etc, it would be a nice beature.
