Seems to lack a license. I'm assuming the intention was to make this open source? Anyway, great work! Many similarities in the UI to my http://hallojs.org/ editor. I'd love to integrate this with Create.js if you can clarify the license q

The new UI is certainly prettier, but yet another example of Android done wrong. Weird action bar, forcing portrait on tablets, etc. This was already mentioned with Facebook Home, but it'd be great if UI designers and developers would actua

Also, with this pixel density and the desktop stand I can keep the tablet reasonably near my face.

Someone needs to reset the wireless at the office. Down time. There is 3G for that, and usually here in Europe the networks hold up quite well. Not being able to do everything while on train or plane is the bigger real issue. Server Prov

The money saving part is obviously of little consequence, it was there mainly because people had asked about it several times, and also because I'm constantly amazed how cheap modern technology has become

Portability and battery life were certainly the main points, not hardware costs :-) I'm explaining the reasons and the pros and cons better in the original post: http://bergie.iki.fi/blog/working-on-android/

The good thing about this decoupled setup is that switching costs (in time, not in money) are amazingly low. If something new and interesting comes up, I can just switch to that device and reconnect to my existing tmux sessions. Maybe Ubunt

One giveaway is the emphasis on the time spent (a whole six week!) People had been asking for updates after my original post ( http://bergie.iki.fi/blog/working-on-android/ ) explaining the setup. By now it is over two months and I'm stil

I tried this briefly with a Transformer Prime last year, and that didn't work. Keyboard and screen weren't good enough. That part is what has changed in a year :-)

Reliable WiFi is indeed a problem, but in most European counties a prepaid 3G SIM costs maybe 10-15€ and works well enough with MOSH.

Moving from 11" laptop to a 'retina' 10" tablet however is actually an upgrade screen estate wise. I can see the appeal of multiple big screens, but that has never worked for me. I spend much time on the road, and want to have the same work

I fully agree with the basic point. Forcing these "download our app" doorslams is annoying and mostly pointless. I would never download an app for most of the sites I use, preferring the linkable, cross-platform web experience instead. This

As usual with Google, they're still not handling multilingual situations too well. It has been a long time since I've seen any spam in English, but tens of mails in languages like Finnish and Georgian get through every day. I wonder if the

People already keep their smartphones on table in busy bars, and maybe their wallet in a back pocket. This isn't any easier to steal than that, and has way less impact than having to freeze your credit cards for instance. Much will depend o
