First off, amen to the rant that started this post. And personally, I don't even consider it so much a rant as much as it is a wake up call to really work better towards a unified user interface. It was very clear to me that whomever led the team for 2007 got an ability to step up (or was moved out for someone else) for 2008. Now, before 2009, can we see something in the way of standarized UI conventions, because that will go a long way towards heightening the user experience of the tablet as a whole.

I know I fall in the stylus camp, and would rather see more menu items (stylus size), than fewer. But I know there are others who prefer finger-ing.

But I agree the Maemo guys need to give developers a central preference check API, which depending on the user's choice, the app will select finger or stylus method.

Excellent idea; and one that I hope can be done as well.
