BAD NEWS FOR THE FUTURE
http://www.pcworld.com/article/18190...e_need_it.html
I'm disappointed to hear that Samsung is moving over to a new OS, Bada. It looks like power users like us have been forgotten by practically everyone. I HATE the iPhone, it's caused everyone to go out and try to grab its market. The only people who take power users even remotely seriously any more are Blackberry and perhaps HTC, Samsung just dropped them (look at their Bada site, it's all about twitter, multi media, gaming). Because of the f*ing iPhone, everyone is trying to go after Joe and Jane twitter user, video watcher etc. Even Blackberry seems to have put Power users as a second consideration.
I'm betting there are some designers that want to make a good power user phone, and then marketing comes in there and says "
hmm... well that's nice, but lets make the keyboard look cooler, let's make interface bigger so its like the iPhone. Cuz the iPhone is such a big market."
