A true cloud platform where I don't have to mess with admining and provisioning servers and containers. I want to just upload my code and pay for the cycles and bandwidth I use. Aws lambda for http basically.

You know how the iPod is now this tiny little clip on chip with earphones? I want a phone like that. No app, no "smart this or that" - just a phone, with an contact list. The thing can to voice calls and SMS ONLY. It's a real cellular phone, but without all the crap, and a monthly use cost of under $20. Make that, and you'll see a revolution.

I want to slot my phone into a dock connected to three high resolution monitors and a keyboard/mouse and be able to do development work. Essentially, when it's in my hand it's in Phone Mode, when it's in the dock it's in Desktop PC mode. We are getting there with tablets. You can do this with the Surface for example thanks to Display Link technology. I just want the device to be phone sized , around 5.5" or so with a…
Does the development environment have to be housed entirely on the phone itself? I ask because phones are too underpowered for most dev work. But, cloud technology is getting to the point where you can play AAA video games remotely with low latency using a modest computer as a client. To extend on what you have, I think it would be really cool to have a phone app that brings up a remotely-hosted triple monitor dev en…

I was so excited when Microsoft demoed their Display Dock[1] for the Lumia 950s. It was the first step towards what you describe, a phone that becomes a desktop case when connected to the necessary peripherals. I am also saddened that it seems like Microsoft is leaving mobile so it's unlikely we'll see a next iteration of this. --- [1] https://www.microsoft.com/en/mobile/accessory/hd-500/
