Who has had the ability and patience to see the last of Steve Jobs Keynote, where it is presented the new Apple iPhone, will certainly have found fascinating the latest wonder multi-touch technology in Cupertino.
Reveries to the "Minority Report" apart (the reality often exceeds the really fancy), what struck me most, though already present in many smart-phone on the market for some time, is the ability to surf the Internet like a home PC. The iPhone comes into direct competition with traditional phones and not with the smart-phones currently on the market.

The WAP, for example, as it is endeavored to emulate the real Web has failed miserably. This reminds me of the digital terrestrial!

The Net TV, for example, in this new situation might find fertile ground to take root even more than a few years ago. Then there is every reason to give further impetus to the second youth of the Internet. On the one hand the new forms of aggregation of the community and on the other the opportunity to take advantage of these "experiences" as well as from home even in the "mobility" over the total.
