I definitively believe that there is a future for webb apps.
Looking at icloud.com, a "web os", you'll find that there is a potential for many apps to migrate to the web.
We have seen that browsers are getting better at rendering JS, i.e. Google Chrome and Firefox 3.1, meanwhile functionality such as Canvas introduces possibilities of creating more elaborate apps that might require photo editing etc.
