You completely missed my point. UI designs have to be done specifically with the capabilities of the device in mind. That is what makes Apple's music player, phone, tablet, etc. so much better than the various personal musicplayers, smart phones, and tablets that came before them. Apple did not invent the MP3 player, or the smartphone. But the Apple "control freak" approach made it better, and makes their world easier to use. Designing any application, web page, etc. requires that you consider all of the characteristics. That no human alive has eyeballs to make out the detail on the new iPhone 4 does not matter. What the device requires is a new layout and design. Sure, you can just take your old design and make it bigger. But that gains nothing from the device's abilities. -- Pat Farrell http://www.pfarrell.com/ _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
