  • Removal of stylus keyboard from application framework
  • Eventual removal of resistive touch screen

Well, obviously our primary aim is to provide a good mobile user experience. It kind of depends what one means by "trendy". "Trends" can be seen as solutions that people are generally leaning towards, and as such aren't necessarily bad or good. Nobody here is trying to be "trendy", we've got better things to do.

It is possible that we don't agree on what makes a good mobile computing user experience, but it's hard to comment more before concrete product launches. Perhaps we have come back to these questions and reasonings after such an event.
