metastability and immobility

I have been wondering about what resides both within mobility and across mobilities. Of course the thing that must obviously be taken into account within mobility is immobility. (Saskia Sassen says this also with respect to local immobilities that emerge as part of the non-investigated aspects of the global city in her book Territory, Authority, Rights). With respect to mobile media, for example, should we not also be asking about the extent to which pdas, mobile phones, etc capture us within a certain logic? Again, I'm not the first to say this - Jordan Crandall has articulated this logic as one of operational media

But what about 'across'? Andrew has raided this issue of metastability. I am wondering if this comes via Simondon as the kind of order which arises from 'mediation/communication' between other orders? A kind of mediation that might arise from, say, the intersection of phones (technical order) with shifting work practices (social order)? Is the issue, then, to keep ensuring that new metastabilities are produced before these are captured into the exploitation of the flexible workforce, for example?

A whole string of questions here, I know, but I am wondering where metastability distinguishes itself from capture....I am also wondering if capture and immobility are the same thing...or not? Can immobility be a force of resistance?
