The problem is that "better" or "worse" seems to be awfully subjective here.

I love the tabbed log of S60 (and related shortcuts, like pressing the green call key takes me to my dialed calls and only to them).

One thing that is attractive from Nokia solutions (for me at least) is that they are supposed to be less impositive on the customers (unlike Apple "my-way-or-your-way" style).

I guess someone can design a new call log interface that emulates S60...

Edit: I am going to add a bit of perspective here. It is not that I want tabs per se. I want a way of classifying the types of calls on the log, be them received, sent, missed, etc. Tabs provided that classifying capabilities. Filters could too.

A plain list, don't.
