2. All applications like scheduling, word processing, spreadsheets, etc. are performed on the network server, and display on the phone and/or connected monitor.

Allen,

Is it possible that running applications on a network server would be too expensive for the end user ? While you are running an application you are also simultaneously running up a bill. I guess it depends very much on the pricing structures involved.

With regard to your Intel/Cisco post (which was very impressive). It was mentioned at the 8K CC that Cisco might at some point in the future use a version of Tornado for IOS. If I understand this correctly it would mean that at least Cisco would have uniformity across it's development environments but not it's OSs. Would this solve Cisco's conundrum or would it just be a band-aid to get them by.

Regards
JC.
