The simpler the UI the less control the user has. In some instances that's not a user issue because the device meets their needs and expectation. IMHO, a computer that can do phone is a more useful device than a phone that also does some computer. I prefer the Nokia but for my taste I see some artificial limitations that have been built in by narrowing the function to Internet tablet. Not that Internet tablet is bad, just that other root PIM capabilities are needed for any device to be a constant companion. For me, open source is also important because marketing oriented artificial limitations can still be overcome. Mcalendar and gToDo overcame some of those issues for me but I'm still a bit disappointed that the contacts ignores physical location and flexible free form notes so the contacts can do the most basic of CRM.
