It makes me want to dig into the art of science of predictive
intelligence as it relates to the behavior and interactions of
electronics, but I probably need to go back to school for a while,
huh? :)

So Google is probably eyeing that market, and Android is a step in the direction of standardization. I don't know what sort of virtualization technologies currently exist for the embedded market, but as they proliferate and embedded computing becomes more advanced, then eventually your vision will become a reality. But it's probably further off than we wish.

If you really wanted to go off the deep end with the conspiracies, imagine that netbooks with their wireless would be a convenient route for deploying something like a mesh network. Why couldn't a legitimate botnet be used to wrestle control away from wireless carriers and telecoms, circumventing the reliance on wired networks and mobile carriers?

Regardless, my thinking is that Google is on a road to serious decline or poised for world domination. I'm Google weary, despite being a major fan.

I can't imagine the folks at Google - or at the thousands of other tech companies doing amazing things - haven't their eye squarely on this kind of overall connectivity.
