Well, there are going to be alpha and beta releases (maybe only of the SDK, I'm not clear on the details, but it will be clarified at the Summit). Presumably they'll be using SSU to push the final release, but there's no telling for sure.

lol. The way you guys are ranting, you almost sound like you're discussing politics. ;) And if we wanted to take it a step further, we could call the two groups the Stylus Party and the Thumb Party. ;) :D

and i would say that kinetic scrolling is the worst part of mauku, with the need to go into the long tap to open a twitter link a distant second (i find myself triggering doubletap because i put to light a pressure on the screen).

You aren't a fan of the coked-out dialog are you? See, for me, that's the best part. ;)
I was partly joking... but to be honest I tried to enjoy it for the campy genre piece it was, but it was a bit too surreal. And I kept coming up with better ideas for the story as I watched, which ain't good :p

Oh yes, you think it's annoying when you bump your home applets out of position now? Wait until they rocket across the screen and deform other applets upon collision.

ok, what methods are available for interacting with a list item?

Scroll action
Select action
Context Functions


slide
tap
double tap
tap and hold
tap and wiggle
tap [CONTEXT MENU APPEARS] tap choice
tap, then use ui elements away from the list item to control actions

finger
double finger
shocker


any more?
