Also, keep in mind ease of finding menu items on the iPhone are definitely not universal. One app I use that comes to mind is mediamote...you start the app and you get a screen highlighting other programs the writer has coded, if you hit any of these including 'mediamote' the app you are already using, suddenly you are thrown to his web page. So you start the app again...this time waiting and finally the screen disappears and you are presented with a blank screen. Where do i input the settings? There are zero buttons, just a screen with a background..blank. You have to just know to stop the app again, go to general settings in your iphone and then find mediamote and input the settings there and then go back and open mediamote again. Ease of use as he speaks of in the article is far, far from universal in the iPhone.
