Q hits and misses

Adam Richardson writes about how Motorola’s Q marries great industrial design with less than great software.

“It’s a beautiful product, but one that is saddled with a clunky interface. I haven’t thought this well enough through yet to know if it’s a universal law, but it seems like experience design is like a chain, it’s only as good as its weakest link. The weaknesses only highlight how close the strengths have come to achieving greatness. Unfortunately it appears the Q has missed nirvana.”

    Adam is right. I downloaded a bunch of applications to my Q. Except for Didiom, they are all disappointing.
