We briefly summarize the mobile computing environment from a computer science point of view, and discuss some of the interesting possibilities raised by the prospect of extremely large numbers of computational nodes networked over wireless channels. Among these are: the use of reflection and the metaspace construct to deal with some of the Quality of Service and Connectivity problems of mobile computing, the problem of dealing with the degraded user interfaces often implied by mobility, and the possible applicability of mobile objects to mobile computing.
