Desktop apps eventually got replaced by web apps because it is more convenient to access the app from anywhere - from any computer, not necessarily because web apps were easier for developers. Now with mobile apps developers are hoping for the same thing to happen again but this time, users don't have the same pull - they always have their phones with them. I'm not going to log onto a mobile terminal at the library to check my email or run some app. To look at it from the other side, if omnigraffle was always available to you as a native app, as your app with your settings, with all of its slickness, would you want a web based alternative?
