Edward Tufte Weighs In on Apple's iPhone

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the word-from-on-high dept.

An anonymous reader writes "Via Daring Fireball, a post from design guru Edward Tufte's site discusses his views on the interface used by the Apple iPhone. The post includes a video presentation by Tufte on the subject of video resolution on the phone. His argument is primarily that while the iPhone does a lot of things very well, Apple hasn't quite realized the platform's full potential by making screen real estate all it could be. "

    The racists are. Just because you don't agree with them does not make them wrong (or so Republics and Democracies tell me) ;)

      Flamebait and Troll are defective moderation categories.
