the end of the OS

InfoWorld’s Neil McAllister comments on the recent trend of Rich Internet Application platforms such as Adobe Air and JavaFX making the operating system irrelevant. This is certainly happening for desktop applications. It hasn’t quite happened yet for mobile device operating systems, yet with five major mobile device operating systems the need is so much greater. We think that Rhodes may be the best shot at that happening for mobile devices. J2ME as a way to program once for multiple device operating systems, except for limited niches in mobile gaming, seems to have been dead from the start. Are there other alternatives?
