I agree. smartphones are different (using browser on them is last resort
for me)
not so sure about tablets, but will be happy to learn something new.
looking forward to discussing what's common/what's not next week to see
how to push this forward.
About tablets - Just bought an 8'' android device (Archos 9G 80) , and I
also have an android phone (Samsung Galaxy S II). Of course using the
browser on the tablet is more convenient , but I can tell you for
example I prefer to use the youtube, gmail and gtalk applications and
not their web sites (although they are more usable than they are on my
phone, of course).
