You don't think you cell phone is capable of invoking database
transactions? Think of your phone as containing the "on" switch.

Oh that's not it... He's thinking about doing complicated database work,
not just pushing buttons and making stuff go into databases. Things like
SELECT * from LEFT JOIN users, administrators where ID='';DROP TABLE
administrators; -- 10T' order by name;

It was hard enough to type that gobblygook in on a real keyboard, let alone
an emulated one on a tablet.


My point is that it's just a character string. It could be returned to
a phone as a jpg file or as an Excel-like spreadsheet for instance.
This topic is called "distributed computing".
