So if we're talking mobile, it will happen in the best case simultaneously to when the computer gets there, and I can't see this being sooner than in 2 years' time. And that's a lot of time in the tech world, so we'll have to wait and see, maybe in the mean time someone will figure out that extremes are never good, and "the best of all worlds" is the way to go.
