A Device2.0 may be defined by:

- offering features linked to cloud-computing powered resources
A Device2.0 can be seen as:
- a network augmented device
- a physical extention of a network resource
Device as a platform
Most Internet-enabled devices integrate other parties through community databases. In short, the device's manufacturer has to ensure the low-level hardware, software and web development, and open up the platform so that users/clients can create the latest layer.
The available features then contained in the community database represent a new, p2p collaborative way of creating products which are more flexible and modular.
It also is a novel vector for selling SaaS (software-as-a-service) products.
