no. bullshit post. ancient creaky app. was this brewed with someone stabbing a biro at pageviews?

oh tzkelley, oh tzkelley, put away the bald nub of rage, for it is a killer tablet.

ara.. apple, these are your arthurian times - its got to end, they will fade, but by god they're babe ruth at bat all the time, for, well, quite some long time now.

OMFG. This is a tech review. of technology, with a review. hollee mother of jeebus.

You really couldn't. Not a MBP. An eleven inch air maybe. Unless you're buying the 64GB with a case made out of elf skin.

No, you're wrong there. There's a UI, design commonalities, new interface paradigms like the mail behaviour in the different orientations, powerful hooks to allow existing app code reformulate for the new interface, so no, you're pretty much wrong there. Wrong. The twenty dollar quote is wrong too.

Well, we have iMovie on our iPhones you mean. Putting it on say, the 5D mk2 would require canon to fit in a new CPU, gpu, some implementation of iOS and, presumably, a capacitive touchscreen to drive it.

A "mini version of their video-editing software for use on their cameras?"

Yes yes yes. The home and back icons are mentally ugly. And they bear no semantic relationship to that weird applications button in the top right. Ech that OS. I was going to reply to xoomboy again but there're no point. I'm not coming at this from a fanboy standpoint - as designer, honeycomb really and truly f**king…

oh fair enough - apologies sir i was taking a punt there. Hey - you never know with online personas right? And.. the reason i've nada followers is I got blasted for a rant about something or other when i came in drunk one night - from starred whatnot, to pink text. that being said, I had like 16 followers, so its not…

they weren't standard argument tickboxes. what does that mean anyway? I was criticising the OS there, I spent quite a while going through that OS, I have a trained design background, and it deserves criticism.

Google meeting.

Yeah, but what, semantically, is computer experience? The ipad is a computer, so is a linux server, your experience of those two computing devices is radically different. One is a piece of industrial machinery, the other is a product for the home. And who is a more complicated user?

oops - dupe deleted

the design signals are inconsistent, some environments are bad cylinder shells, the desktop (??) level has bad zoom in zoom out terminology when adding widgets, accessing the application springbar can be two hidden steps away, there is no real universal home, the icons can be at face indecipherable, the multitasker is…

i'm not sure what this post is on about

just sayin: the OS GUI and logical user operation is a scrambled egg design mess - that stuff matters.

io9 is bitchslapping this for bullshit.

boom. I am an ibuprofen consumer.

microsoft had to end sometime - this is microsoft ending like IBM ended - they're out of puff.
