First of all, nice article,

First of all, nice article, personally I feel that thin clients shall be used for more than the foreseeable time due to the fact that advances in heat dissipation at the pocket device scale are almost stagnant and some of the applications one envisions that will go into these will surely cause them to overheat and perhaps pose of a hazard to the user. So why not offset majority of the computing through a wireless network to another server as you pointed out, I want to ask you why do you look at it as a temporary solution? Another thing you didn’t explore was the rise of cybernetics, I personally feel that within the body embedded devices will soon overtake other devices; this integration would be a true testament to the vision of ubiquitous computing.
