Re: Pocket Express the right choice?

i wish Pocket Express was more thumb friendly. Seems like they have a different interface for the Sprint Instinct that was much easier to use, IMO.

Re: Pocket Express the right choice?

Thanks for feedback. In addition to consolidation of content, an additional benefit is that an app works off-line. I can "synchronize" when in range, then "read" when out of range. During my commute I go underground a lot, so this is useful.

Re: Pocket Express the right choice?

Interesting comment about thumb-friendliness. I've always used it with WM and a stylus touchscreen.

Another benefit for Pocket Express is that it synchronizes efficiently. They don't bother with downloading pictures because it takes bandwidth and slows everything down.

Re: Pocket Express the right choice?

There is a littlel bit of a "newspaper" quality to pocket express. I can "browse" or I can read deeply. Although I normally think of it as a 3-5 minute activity, I could easily spend 30-60 minutes getting my daily news fix.

Re: Pocket Express the right choice?

Newspaper is a good analogy in some ways. There's an interesting combination of data, information, and opinion. Neatly delineated, btw.

Re: Pocket Express the right choice?

Okay, now for my "news of the weird" post from Pocket Express: The British strip club industry argues that lap dancing is not sexual, in order to reduce licensing restrictions. Wonderful...
