@realn: Well, every major OS out there (Windows, Mac OS X, Ubuntu) are moving to such a situation. See the new launchpad (or whatever it's called) on Mac OS X that is much like the springboard on iOS and the new Windows Phone OS (or whatever it's called) and Windows 8 with their similar setup. It's an inevitable change in a transition from the traditional desktop situation to one where evetually the browser becomes the center piece and is all you need.
