Using ssh, screen, and a prgmr instance, I can access my stuff and have the same state for almost all of my dev work anywhere I can use a chrome browser with the ssh plugin or any ssh terminal app. That is pretty close to what he's talking about I suppose. As of now my iphone, ipad, and laptop can all jump on my little instance and I'm good to go.
That being said, I don't think going 100% cloud is for everybody yet, but we're getting closer.

You've just made your own dumb terminal, doing EVERYTHING on the remote system except printing out a stream of characters to the local screen. It's not even as smart as the Blit that Rob Pike designed in 1982; at least that had the capability to fetch configuration from the server to set itself up.
