A tumblog by Danny Turley, a 23 year old student from Belfast. I enjoy creating rich user experiences by crafting beautifully simple interfaces on the iPhone, iPad & the Web.
For a device that is “a post-pc device”, it sure feels like a peripheral product to a typical computer. I love my iPad and my iPhone but to call them post-pc devices is pure ideology at this stage in the game, and not grounded in reality. With Apple’s massive data center rumored to go live anytime, they could alleviate a lot of these problems by letting some of your data reside in the cloud. Until then as an iOS developer, I believe calling the iPad a “post-pc” device is disingenuous.
