What happens when you use modern apps on iphone 3 or first nexus phone? I don't understand, do people think that with better, faster computers and network speed we should focus on smaller and smaller apps and websites?

Your iPhone CPU doesn't suddenly become an iPhone 3G CPU sometimes, but network availability does vary a lot.

You may also one day find yourself on a flaky 3G connection needing access to some web app that first loads twenty megabytes of junk before showing the 1 kB of data you need, and then it's clearer what the problem is here.
