.. now considering the U controller will have no processer and such and just stream I think he's on the ball here.

That is complete nonsense. Behind closed doors, Nintendo has apparently shown early apps that run on the tablet (a web browser was one of the aps)

The app is being run by the console not the controller the latter is just streaming it, it's been confirmed that the controller will have no processor and just stream and be used for inputs, the controller can't function by itself like a tablet the console is what runs everything.

Nonsense. The web browser app was reportedly running independent of the base unit, on the tablet.  Of course, the tabled is not going to be nowhere as close as an ipad clone or "tablet" clone, but apparently it has enough computational power of its own to run some apps.
