I think another factor which may help speed things along is HDTV. The TV/Computer/Phone convergence everyone expects has been slowed by the low resolution of TV monitors. Once HDTV becomes common, that impediment is removed. Then the TV can fairly easily become a "thin client" for a lot of people.

JMHO, of course.
