Im sick of threads been hijacked the moment someone mentions multitasking/new iphone and such.
If you want to winge and compare why iphones suck do it here and not on everyone elses threads.
Steve Jobs: If you see a stylus, it's the wrong product. If you see a stylus, they blew it. Similarly, in multitasking, if you see a task manager, they blew it. If a user has to use a task manager to manage it, they blew it. Users shouldn't have to think about that stuff.
Obviously taken out of context, after they talk about how their pseudo-multitask system automates a lot of stuffs to optimize things for (the limited resources of) a mobile device.
Yes I agree, the "pr1.2 screenshots" thread got hi-jacked. I couldn't even post about the topic because then i would be off topic. I don't care about apple and their brainwashed consumers, this is Mameo.
For some odd reason I like how Steve is provocative. Actually i really like that kind of attitude.
But yeah they really really know how to do business with masses right now in smart phone category. Putting poor customer to walled garden and giving everything on plate is quite good way to make piles of money. Have to admit that there is huge amount of people who couldn't care less for freedom of choice when it comes to programs. Actually they are quite lost if you give them options and freedom to choose. They like to be told what to do and give their money happily away. Lovely
If you can see a stylus you can see the screen - coz my fat little fingers arn't in the way
lol nice one. Well i did like Folders and the UI for it. Got me thinking, menu file is a simple xml on n900. It shouldnt be too hard to implement such a drag n drop folder UI.
create folder -> name it -> drag n drop UI (a window at the bottom where apps can be dragged to be added) -> done
