For most - access to the web is a far off prospect as it mainly includes a PC and a Web Browser. The way to get the web to more people (IMO) isn't through sub-$100 laptops and micro-browsers in PDA / Call Phones or set top boxes. I think we need to take the web to the people, not bring the people to the web. To do that - delivery of content has to be made way more consumer-oriented. Don't think Desktop or Webtop widgets - think Fridge Magnets, Art, picture frames, billboards, bathrooms. Imagine a Fridge Magnet that takes an Atom/RSS feed of the weather forecast, A bathroom mirror that displays my news feed and stock quotes, a picture frame that accesses my Flickr image stream. They don't have to be one way either - they need to interact to provide feedback. The technology is getting small enough and cheap enough and WiFi, Bluetooth, GSM are starting to cover the planet.
So, who's making the next gen. fridge magnet ?
