I have always like Apple's approach to leveraging the internet. Call it SaaS if you must. I guess it can be "The Cloud". But I love the beauty of the iPhone Apps architecture. Rich, elegant GUI on the device, powered by a connection to the internet in the back to run the app or store the data. This is SO superior to an experience of sitting in a browser based app, waiting for the screen to refresh. I will take that ANY day over some AJAXy looking app in a browser. I remain hopeful that Apple will deliver a Tablet-Like device that will further and expand this experience. Whether that is a bigger iTouch or something new and different and beautiful.
