Ok, Ok – I’m an owner of a stone age cell phone. So I was out looking for a new one… And I’m shocked! I’ve seen very fancy, beautiful cellphones, with beautiful and professional hardware interfaces. But… there seems to be a competition for the worst softwaredesign.

This article written by Larry Cohen supports me in my life of suffering:

“In a recent phone conversation with a friend, I needed a phone number of a mutual acquaintance. My friend had the number in his mobile phone, but it took several minutes for me to convince him that he could review numbers stored there without hanging up. The sad part of this is that upon discussing the incident with friends who are responsible for the software in some phones, they laughed at what they viewed as “stupid user behavior.” Tsk. tsk. If your phone software is so good, why do most of your customers persist in erroneous beliefs about it’s function?”
