The end game I think for sandstorm is the equivalent of a rich AppStore/Marketplace for web apps and web services. Instead of installing an App on your phone. You would install some service on a personal server. Without needing to be a technical person who understands configuring servers. And for technical users, you can have one-click installs for apps that you know are secure, sandboxed against your other apps and more. And for App writers, you have an API surface area that makes it easy to do authentication, sharing, etc... There are lots of things to like here. And a lot of opportunity given how much richer an experience an actual persistent web server can offer over a traditional client app install. (I am not affiliated with Sandstorm. Just dig the vision, and think that Kenton and his crew are pretty awesome engineers who can pull it off.) Edit: Re-reading your post, I think you might have been talking about Wave and not Sandstorm :). Whoops. My bad :P.
