some topics stand out:
Recently (and ironically) Microsoft bought all of Netscape’s patents from AOL for $1 billion. These include such foundational patents of the web as Secure Socket Layer (SSL), cookies and JavaScript.
One motivation for
Microsoft’s acquisition of Netscape’s patents could be to use them in a patent
war with Google to stop the Chrome browser’s ascendance in its tracks. The
mobile version of Chrome will be a major competitor to Apple’s Safari as well
as Mozilla’s new Firefox OS.
The Mozilla entry is not only a browser, but a full-on operating system that can run mobile devices.

The Netscape technology
bought by Microsoft, possibly trying to stuck Chrome, and the Firefox OS,
supplying support for resources which were before just supplied by the
operating system, lead us to a future completely different from the present.
The operating system will no more define the mobile market, split into Android, Apple and Microsoft.

You will
buy connectivity considering cost/benefit (ROI – return on investiment) and the
O.S. will become a secondary subject, or even optional.
The
new Market will fight offering the best final resources under the users’ point
of views, where the way to achieve them is no more relevant.
The
new rules will change the IT scenarios as a consequence in just few years like
a Tsunami, considering that a new embedded O.S. may offer some concepts inherited
from the virtual machines were additional O.S. compliances and services may be
available to the applications, turning the native O.S. transparent and no more
decisive.
Better
considering such possibility when planning at long term.
