The knee-jerk contrarianism seems to be in vogue right now. Reminds me of some colleagues in 2007 lamenting about the iPhone, "It's not that great; it doesn't even have copy & paste!" Fast forward a few years, and no blackberries in sight.
- Kranar 4y agoOh God, when the iPhone came out people were raging "But it doesn't have a keyboard!" It's so hard for people, including myself, to look at the future potential of a technology. My attitude is to simply keep an open mind nowadays instead of holding very strong opinions about the trajectory of a given technology.
- citrin_ru 4y agoNot everybody happy living in the future. I'm annoyed most of the time I had to use on-screen keyboard on iPhone - it is slow, error prone and auto-correction only makes it worse when I use uncommon terms. I want hardware keyboard like it was on Nokia with Symbian or Blackberry back.
