You seem to be missing the part where I said a full-on contextual OS switch. To borrow your metaphor, it would be like putting on a pair of pants which turned into swim trunks at the pool, then turned into work pants at work.

Or do you mean to use the phone's hardware for the computing and storage? At the very least I wouldn't want important documents stored on something so easy to lose.
- borbulon 4y agoMy gut tells me that cloud-based OSes have too much of a user-server lag? I could be wrong. I don't claim to have all the answers for this worked out, TBH - otherwise I'd be starting a company that's working on this problem. I do think it's an avenue to be explored, though. But as far as document storage, Maybe the dock acts as a home server? Either way, it seems like off-device document storage is a problem that's been solved multiple ways already?
