Since then, the 'annoyances' have elevated themselves to 'extreme frustrations', and I've become thoroughly disenfranchised with it - I'm restoring my FR back to 2007.2 as I type this...
I maintain that the interface at least is a big leap forward - it's very slick and pretty, and it shows alot of promise - once the bugs have been worked out to the point where it's on par with 2007.2 for stability, and something has been done about the *awful* keyboard, I'll happily go back to it. In the meantime, though, a pretty-looking paperweight has the same functionality as an ugly looking one - I'll take usability over eyecandy any day... In my opinion, your opinion is spot on - eyecandy is all well and good but making the thing work should be a much higher priority. -D _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
