OK, so I’m finishing the Orange gig which means new phone. I picked up an iPhone on Sunday and so far, the experience has been mixed…
| the good | the bad | |
|---|---|---|
| Appleness | lovely interface with apps that launch instantly and give great real-time feedback (Googlemaps is almost perfect but for one feature that sort of kills it) | no charge in the battery means no out-of-box experience (if you've ever unpacked an imac you'll know what I mean) |
| OS-design | no app-switcher | no app-switcher |
| handfeel | virtual keyboard works with one-handed hand-and-thumb (contrary to what early handset-expert nay-sayers claimed when the device launched) | really crummy soft ergonomics. I've almost dropped the thing twice. I could have used little rubber nipples on the back or etched grooves on the sides |
I’ll add to this as I get used to the device…
