“You don’t need to invent anything, you just have to do traditional research where you look at history and then compliment that with scientific research where you’re trying to do something new. That can lead to a lot in the business and technology sectors these days” – Bill Buxton
A chat with Microsoft Principal Researcher Bill Buxton, Part I
1. No Multitasking
This is DISSAPOINTING. This was meant to compete against netbooks but without multitasking? Not even close. You cannot even download music from iTunes while browsing the web or using an IM app while listening to your music. Sorry, I will wait for iPad 2.0
2. No Camera
No words can describe or explain the lack of a “tiny” camera on this thing. Perhaps it is related to the multitasking issue? or it is because of the huge load to the new Arm processor? We will never know for sure
3. No Flash
No Hulu? What about those millions of websites with full flash elements? I’m pretty sure Apple was thinking on all of us – users – when decided to let this one out…yeah right!
