Yup. I've been reading about the imminent demise of native apps forever, but even Steve Jobs couldn't sell that vision. Web apps on mobile are the way of the future, and always will be.

It's not really the demise of native apps. I think it's almost undeniable that a percentage of native apps should be websites, it's just a question of whether that's going to end up as 30% or 80%. Seems unlikely it will ever be 100%.
