Pippin, thanks for the feedback. I'll definitely take it to heart. I did take a stab at a couple of the polish-related issues you raised, so check out the next preview (or final release, as it may be). As to your issues with the Android back button -- well, you're not alone, but in my opinion, the alternative (the lack of a back button) is far worse. Granted, you can get into some situations where the backstack gets out of control (facebook app is crazy sometimes), but I think Orange Squeeze walks a line once you get used to it. In general the icon in the upper right takes you to the browse screen no matter where you are, and resets the backstack at the same time. Most other things preserve the backstack. It's interesting that the issue of confirming with a user whether or not to "quit" the app is raised. First, on Android there is no "quitting" the app. Relaunching it brings you right back where you left off most of the time automatically, but this issue just came up on the Android developers group just in the last couple days, and a rookie developer was shunned out of the room for asking how to implement a confirmation like that. It's simply considered bad form on Android. There is a lot of discussion about this on why and how and whatever, plenty of data to find if you're interested. Without question, however, Orange Squeeze is intended to be an Android app for Android users. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ db122's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4076 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=92330 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
