Heeren- Thanks for your comments. In going down your list, IMO the one that I personally hope(as a CTXS investor) slows the web-based model the most, is the interactivity issue. That I see as being the hardest obstacle for the web-based Java model to overcome. It will be interesting to see how much users of Microsoft Office are actually devoted to the thousands of features it offers. Most of which would be hard to run on a web-based thin client model.

And I also agree with your comments about finding other areas of focus. Wireless being one of them. I personally feel the full-blown apps over a narrow pipe issue should bode well for ICA. But you see it more as an issue of being able to deploy the same apps over a large variety of devices and operating systems. Either way, ICA wins. Ironically, I don't see CTXS pushing the wireless aspect much(in ads, PR, Website, conferences, etc.).

CTXS seems heavily focused on TCO still(which is good) and recently ASP. IMO the ASP issues are not that far from the wireless issues. Only problem is, will the fundamental shift ASP offers catch on? We all know wireless will. That's why I would like to see more focus on mobile wireless data. -MikeM(From Florida)
