Rich Graphics Streamed to a mobile phone

It looks like some fabulous innovations have been happening in the Cloud Computing/Streaming environment. If you haven't heard the buzz basically Cloud Computing (And Cloud Gaming) is the way of the future. Our data is not going to be stored on local hard-drives but will be stored on a centralized super computer which is instantly attainable. Sound far fetched? OnLive (http://onlive.com) certainly doesn't think so, in fact they are getting it close to making it happen, and not only in Computers but phones as well.

Reading recent reports a highly graphics intensive game Crysis was streamed to a low quality $200 Computer running at about 60FPS, just let the implications of that sink in... Also recently they streamed the same game Crysis directly to an Iphone, now imagine what that could mean to the gaming world and in fact the computing world as a whole.

If High Graphics applications like that could run even in an Iphone. Photoshop, Fireworks, and in fact any intensive software could be placed on a cheap computer (or phone) increasing productivity because there is no longer installing and everything is run in "The Cloud"

Cloud Computing is definitely the way of the future.
