Interesting.
The failure (or refusal) to simplify is my main beef with Apple at this point as well. ...which is relatively absurd, when you think of how much they ARE simplifying, trying to keep up with a veritable deluge of new features and technologies flooding in every day, choosing some, combining some, uniting, and reducing them to a minimal, essential implementation. It's a ton of simplification. But thats why it's so odd that they go through all that constantly, and then consistently put out iOS & iTunes UI's that look increasingly more and more cluttered, disconnected, cryptic, scattered, hidden, and unintuitive in general. I get it, there are loads of new features constantly being shoehorned into existing ux models as least disruptively as possible, but the front end is not keeping up with the back end, and it's getting ugly.
Nostalgia for the clean, efficient, straightforward slick utility of the original iPhone with 1.1.4 is formidable.
