Hi Jason,

Don't be too disappointed. This is exactly what The Lean Startup (a good read!) 
is all about and I am pretty sure quite a few of us have run into a situation 
like this ourselves. I was thinking about your remark on the radio buttons. I 
could be wrong, but I think it is the only control in your suite for which 
Foundation does not offer a widely known and used standard object. The closest 
thing is a UISegmentedControl, but that is still quite different from radio 
buttons, like Java has. So my guess is that you are getting a lot of feedback 
on it, because it is not regularly available and a custom control has to be 
created when a clients requests something like that. If that thought were true, 
than maybe focussing on controls that are currently absent in Foundation, but 
that could be useful might be a strategy to consider? A successful example 
would be the 'Facebook' panels, for which there is no out-of-the-box solution, 
but which are hugely popular. In short, my 5 cents would be to not focus on 
existing controls for which - to be honest - it will be very hard to come up 
with look and feel improvements AND for which coding practices are widely 
known, used and very accessible, but to focus on the white spots on the map 
instead.. Along the way, try to get feedback from your target audience as early 
as possible, maybe even at the drawing table, and let them help you find the 
best direction..

Best,

Diederik
