Honestly I think the future of mobile will just be... mobile websites.
That was Steve Jobs' original vision for the iPhone.
The difficulty was that once the App Store launched, people and middle managers thought that if a company didn't have an "app," it wasn't a real company.
Now that the web has matured, there are not that many things outside of games that require an app. But there are still many people (including many in my own company) that think an "app" adds credibility to a company, even if that app does less than the web site.
