No I haven't, and I agree with you. For now.


JS is slow. For now.

Google is changing that. Chrome has a finetuned js parser/engine that allows websites to draw way faster than otherwise (opera/FF/IE ...). Google pushed the innovation. Now Mozilla just released an equivalent engine (still in alpha i believe) on Firefox 3.1 (dev branch?) that beats the socks off of chrome.....

Before long, js will execute as fast as a plain html site does on lynx.

Now, add the fact that tablets are getting a hefty processor upgrade.... I'm pretty confident that heavy js sites loading fast on the tablet will become the norm soon.


My point is: Why design for the past, when the future is so close?

(ok, that sounded cheasy, I admit )
