The idle mind at it's idleness asks ...

Smart-phones/tablet devices are now often powered by GHz processors, provided with comparable memory and have oodles of band-width.

Can an application server be deployed on a smartphone/tablet?

The few arguments I can come up with against the idea are

  1. Battery drain (running a database server, an application server, perhaps encryption routines)
  2. Availability (spotty bandwidth, poor Wx)
