>The fact is, the iPhone and iPad are underpowered computers. They have limited storage, limited memory, (relatively) slow processors, slow network connections, and most importantly, small screens. And thus to make a great application user experience for these devices, you have to design with all those limitations in mind.
>And this I think is where the genius of Apple comes in. They aren’t trying to hide those limitations from the developer.
How can Apple even hide these limitations? I fail to see their genius here. All I see in the "article" are Gruber-ish vacuous arguments and justifications about how 'Apple can do no wrong'. Regardless, this post will get lots of upvotes because there are a lot of Apple fans around that will upmod based on the title of the post.
