I want to have coffee with this guy. The last line sums up his entire blog post perfectly:

I do believe that the aggregated smartness will however create a new communications revolution.

He hit the nail on the head and I just want to elaborate on one of his points:

Mobile applications right now are simply a 2 way connection between our handset and the cloud. Technologies such as Wireless USB and Bluetooth 2.1 will enable rich personal area networks to be built. The future of the mobile web, the future of the web period, is when our personal area network can talk with the wide area network and give us knowledge that is extremely relevant, powerful and useful.

How long do I think until his vision comes true? 15 years

This Intel UMPC video illustrates things a little clearer I think:
