    You know more than I do on site building, Paul: I defer to your facts over my opinions

    Glad you didn't paint Mr. Jobs' horse, as he rode into the sunset a brilliant white.

    Getting O/T, sorry!

    My Best,

    Gary

    Gare, whatever you think about Jobs, on the Flash decision he made absolutely the right call. If he hadn't excluded Flash then people like me ( primarily a Flash developer for several years ) would have made his Appstore far less profitable.

    I admire Jobs in many ways, as a human being he could be a jerk, but from a business and design standpoint he was amazing.

    I think your comment about Jobs riding into the sunset is a cheap, unecessary shot.

    Alan - My philosophy when designing for a cell phone or tablet is to design for the space and the bandwidth. While most people have a reasonably fast internet connection and can appreciate some of the animations, I design mobile sites anticipating a network connection which is somewhat to a great deal slower, and with a much smaller viewing area. Larger text. Larger buttons. Less images and less gratuitous animations and effects. But maybe that is just me.
