Google Instant and the mobile cloud

Google will soon launch a new search product, Google Instant, that's directly targeted at mobile touch-screen users. Google Instant will show results "as you type", suggesting the relevant search result before you finish tying in your search phrase. From GigaOM:

In many ways, Google Instant demonstrates the evolution of a product in order to keep up with times; today’s faster broadband means that the search results need to come up faster than one could type. More importantly, Google Instant is a search product optimized for a brave new world where the user interface is touch rather than keyboards, and devices aren’t your classic computer, but instead mobile and tablet-like

The Google Instant, and other mobile cloud applications, will certainly advance the mobile cloud. It's inevitable that more and more native mobile applications will move into the cloud.
