Great! Than I know what to buy when it's time to replace my n900. And that's why I preffered symbian before it. Most other interfaces and os's assume that the users are idiots and behave as such.
Build a system that even a fool can use and only a fool will want to use it.
Catering to the lowest common denominator is not catering to fools.
Building a system that requires too much research is no longer viewed as a beneficial gadget by some, it can be seen as work. And that's when you lose an audience.
Building something that a fool can use means that fools will also buy it. But fools tend to buy everything...
