well said. Quite possibly by then people won't consciously connect to anything. In fact that's the case already with DSL lines which are "always on", except for the moment special software is still used to retrieve the data (web browsers for example). I envision the integration to increase to the point where people no longer see the difference between local and remote data (a process already underway in some areas). This will of course require a change in the way internet connections are provided and billed, in the same way that 10 years ago internet connections into homes and offices were billed by the minute or by the megabyte and now it's all fixed-rate. The same would have to happen to mobile devices as well (which are now billed by the second or by the kilobyte), or such connections would have to become so cheap and prevalent that there's no longer any separate charge involved at all, the price of the device and applications running on it pays for the connection as well (which of course would assume a business model in which devices have a very rapid replacement cycle, far faster than the several years mobile devices typically last today, I'm not sure I would want to go there).
