I miss good old fashioned menus. It's one reason I liked the PalmOS UX so much better than iOS and Android. Menus are so wonderfully discoverable. The first thing I did when opening a new app (on PDA or desktop) was drop each one down to find out what tools I have available. Like a pilot looking over his cockpit or a craftsman laying out his toolbox. It seems a lot of the last 10 years of UI "progress" has been about burying things in order to "simplify" (aka dumb down) interfaces for audiences developers think of as kindergartners. Zen of Palm showed us streamlined, clutter-free minimalism is possible to achieve without making your app stupid.
