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 all-black screen is spooky at first, but the way you can eliminate it at the push of a button is very satisfactory.

    You really had to plug DF, didn't you? Or maybe you are DF? All DF can do is link to people. He has nothing to say and no skills to say it with. Link to the real article only and stop pimping the worthless.
