If I designed a phone
The modern interfaces in the phone, with all the bells and whistles, lack integrity. If I were making a phone, I would take a piece of paper and draw a tablet. Horizontally and vertically all functionality, point by point. At the intersection, how these two points integrate. For instance:
Etc. It is so obvious that someone has implemented the thread or is going to that. It remains to find (wait) this phone and buy.
For clarity, a table of these starting points at docs.google.com
As well as another table open for joint editing . And a link to the result of the joint work of the habrasociety . Just ask - do not arrange a kindergarten with a chat room and luring invites.
- Calendar + Contact in Address Book = Birthday Reminder
- Photo + Contact in the address book = Mark a person in the photo
- Calendar + Photo = Post photos, grouped by date
- Photo + GPS = Location where the photo was taken
- GPS + Contact in the address book = put the contact address, address of his work, etc.
- SMS + Contact = Place SMS as a chat
- GPS + Call Log = Show where the call came from, (doubtful, but it can come in handy for an alibi)
- Notes + Contact = mobile CRM, leave any notes about the person, from wishes on the DR ending up with 100 bucks (in any quantity and keeping the past)
- Contact + Reminders = call reminder, call and make an appointment, come to the contact home, send SMS. Or show a reminder with an incoming, with an incoming SMS from a contact
- Reminders + GPS = remind you what to do when the phone is in the right place
- Internet + Contact = aggregation like friendfeed, rss from the home page
- Internet + Music = last.fm
- Bluetooth + Contact = Associate a contact and a bluetooth address, store the transmission history, (and even better with a single chat with SMS, logging calls, transmissions, rss, etc.)
- SMS + GPS = Send SMS upon arrival at the designated area. “Son, send SMS as you get”
Etc. It is so obvious that someone has implemented the thread or is going to that. It remains to find (wait) this phone and buy.
