Toshiba TG01 reviewed but maybe a failure??
Just take a look.
Toshiba has gone with a rather unique interface composed of stripes of interest, such as Phone, Media, Applications, and so on. The attempt to combine menu categorization with easily accessible submenu items is something of a hit-and-miss. On the one hand, it's useful to have one-tap access to regularly used features such as the web browser, but only three stripes can be on the screen at any one time and thus you often end up having to do a few swipes before getting to that one tap. And this is where much of the kudos earned by the TG01's external stylings is lost -- the hardware is simply not responsive enough to keep up with the intricacy of the UI. Oftentimes when trying to navigate through stripes your swipe will either go unregistered or move too far. Dialing and using the on-screen keyboard are similarly tortured experiences, but we're more willing to put those down to our crude and unrefined extremities. http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2009/0...ndle-it-again/ |
