Hi,
I fully agree with Paul Reilly and T.V. Raman. I think the last brick that
is remaining to make emacs a full-featured modern desktop is a web browser
(I'm not talking about w3m)
 I have successfully merged yesterday all that remained of my desktop
environment into emacs : IRC and IM. Now, my time is shared among
exclusively emacs and firefox, and the next logical step would be merging
both. What I think would be the ultimate desktop environment would be a way
to have emacs buffers which are web tabs, with a web major mode. It would
use two keyboard maps : one for web surfing, which would we similar to what
conkeror uses, and one for input, which would be the standard one (plus
maybe keys to get out of the input box). I have absolutely no idea of how
feasible this is, but when I saw chrome announcement, first thing that came
to my mind is "hey, these guys start from scratch with a clean API, it may
be easier to wrap into emacs". I hope that some talented hacker (ie not me)
start a project to do this integration. I'd be happy to help, and I suspect
many others too.
