Only two years behind the N9.
Only two years behind the N9.
The N9 was so far ahead of its time it’s not even funny. Easily my favourite phone of all time.
All of which also post-date first Ericsson phones, which UI later was later copied by Nokia, Siemens, and everybody else.
I do remember my R520 from 2001 had something similar.
I guess it lives on in LG TVs but for the year or so before that palm pre broke it was great.
I'd probably still use it if calendar and notes sync were working. I should investigate...
I would probably still use webOS if there was still minimal open source development, some phone to put it on (or I guess I’d be fine getting a Pre 3) and the App Store not being shut down with all apps gone. The homebrew apps weren’t really meant to replace the App Store if I recall.
A world where webOS has 5-10% market share as a stable 3rd place would be amazing.
