Allright guys, I'll concede this isn't for the market that device is aimed at. But really my main point was just how ugly someone can make something when it's not really necessary. I just threw in Apple because they seem to be the only company that makes things both functional and good looking. Why can't a tough device by some other company take a few cues without being labled shallow, simplistic or a fanboy?
I'm not being a troll, other than my use of the word abomination which was, I'll grant you, hyperbole. I guess I'm just sick of other companies not deciding good design means how things look, feel and funciton as an organic whole. But my apologies for taking it too far. Okay? Can we all be friends?
