Marek Pawlowski discusses some of the UI paradigm shift that’s happening with more capable handsets and greater function sets.
“ZenZui’s approach, where users navigate objects themselves, as opposed to lists and icons describing objects, is part of a growing trend in mobile interface design. It is being driven by an an increase in processing power and storage space, enabling users to create and store much richer media on their handsets. It is now not only desirable but technologically feasible to make media objects part of the interface rather than a layer beneath it…Removing the layers between the user and the objects or tasks they want to complete on their mobile device is a logical step. Why should the interface be a passive, structured layer funnelling the user through a process flow?”
