It is very frustrating, mobile web is being held back to allow the walled Gardens to prosper. They expect the web to die and apps to rule the world but this is a fallacy since we will loose so much freedom and info if this had to happen. Also we are seeing the bad side of apps which are "redundancy" and a lot of pointless apps that should actually just be web apps. These apps don't use any of the device capabilities. Also apps decay really quick, if you have an older device you find that you end up updating the app and it runs really bad whereas on the web you can still use a Pentium 2 and browse the web. At some point i am hoping that the market moves towards providing the browsers access to the device api's, until then we have to crank out the objective C and Java!
