Good points.

The way I see it is that realistically, it makes sense to consider most highly mobile work a subset of a given project. It's just not usually practical for instance to design databases, model 3d parts, manipulate spreadsheets, etc.

What does make sense is entering field data, capturing in-the-moment events, performing any sort of labor that actually benefits from high mobility.

My personal efforts here have been to identify where scratch pads, clip boards and post-it notes are used and look to replace them with a handheld electronic device. Unfortunately even though *I* can see high potential here, the focus as I see it has been less on utilitarian modes and more on fun and games... which have value of course but I would really like to see that transient paper ecosystem challenged.

Who's with me?!!?
