Is it just me, or is it that Microsoft and to some extent Nokia (with the
N800) don't get it. A desktop UI sucks for devices that don't use a
keyboard and mouse. You would think that if the device was going to run
Windows, at least put a new interface on it.

Everyone outside of Newton fanatics complained about the size of the Newton.
Now hardware manufacturers are building devices that essentially do the same
thing as a newt, but are bulky and have a poor interface. Its not like it
has been done before :-)

*sigh*
