When will the linux zealots realise that it's the Web that is _the_

Adobe don't agree.

Not every device can support internet connectivity. For one thing, WiFi
is utterly fatal to battery life. Mobile devices must have local
storage and local applications for times when connectivity is simply
not possible.

I think most people nowadays regard connectivity as the priority - if you cant connect you start twitching. I have a couple of holiday cottages and we dont get a lot of mobile coverage down here - people will stand out in the rain and wind rather than not have connectivity
