I'd consider a design workshop like Loren suggested. It's just that
there are a couple of issues:
1. Not all users are in the same domain - meaning that Financial
users are separate from those in HR and Payroll. So the diversity of
users is quite vast as are each of their own domain issues.

I know, a really general request, but here goes:
An assertion was made to me that teens (specifically both genders age
12-18) are not adopting iPhones because they're used to being able to
text without looking at the phone - essentially typing by feel and
relying on the predictive typing software
I think that the typing by feel is only one variable in the decision. I very

I saw you listed John Maeda's Laws of Simplicity. I can also highly
