There will always be some people who don't mind hopping between devices at each stage of their day.

I found that an interesting comment. I've noticed lately that I'm gravitating more and more to a rather small number of applications that let me work on the same "stuff" from whatever computing device I happen to be using at the time. Eg, something like Evernote, where my laptop, S3 and tablets all have the same app, and the documents I create/edit all live somewhere-I-have-never-traveled. Google Drive and Google Docs is part of this - Apple has nothing equivalent.

I also believe that OS dominance in mobile computing will last only a fraction of the time that dominance in desktop OS lasted. Partly because it's all moving so fast, but mostly because the most natural interface is one that minimized use of the screen as an input device, which effectively makes the UI invisible, and nobody gives a flying fig about the plumbing underneath anyway.
