Oh dear God. Mango. I'm pretty sure you can actually HEAR my eyes rolling from way over there.

That UI makes fvwm look like the bees knees. I can't see them converting people from ios or android with this. It is like going from a supermodel to a hag.

Yeah--my impression isn't positive but then I've never personally used it, so I can't make an unbiased opinion. All the hip reporters seem to like it, though--but then, these hip reporters also often have a myopic perspective of what a useful and comfortable interface is when they only use things for minutes or a few days at a time but never have to live with it for much longer than that and are wooed and impressed by shiny things and bubble-shaded objects.

That's my whole point. This isn't even shiny compared to existing stuff.

Mango's "...IE9 will not support any kind of Flash or its videos or even embedded HTML5 clips" [http://mobileosreviews.com/].

I don't usually do this but,

LOLZ, ROFLMAO, suckaaz!

Ok, back to being disappointed with Noks (yeah, Nokia and I are like that, on first-name-basis)

Seriously? In my country mango can be referred to some sexually transmitted diseases. It'd be pretty awkward to ask someone if he got Mango.

Protip: "these hip reporters" like what they're being paid to like.

Harsh, but this is a reality of how the world works.

They'll like a gold-plated turd if it came with a check from Microsoft.
