Much of what I say, sprinkled with my opinion in some cases, isn't meant to enforce "The One Way", but more of a way to continue to spark discussion and opinion amongst others.
As many who know me personally can attest, I'm very flexible in what I accept, and I tend to get people thinking outside the box with the "inflexible" things I say.
That being said, there are places where tabs, transparency, anti-alias etc. are great, but without proper thought about their use (and misuse) on a PDA form factor, its just slapping together pieces without thinking it through.
One thing I am absolutely firm upon, is that the PalmOS-based PDA is not, and never was intended to, replace a desktop computer. Extending the desktop paradigm (replete with its many flaws) on a PDA, just so the environments are "similar" (i.e. PocketPC devices), is just silly.
