I personally think it adds an unnecessary complication. A tablet is
supposed to be simple and easy to use with touch, and touch is not exactly
precise... It will be easy to implement with the "one interface to rule
them all" idea floating around here, though.

No problem here. The priority is, now, to get the phone up and running. The
tablet will be more down the line.

Hey guys,
What I find interesting in the iPad (I just have one because I need it for
work) and recently in Mac OS Mavericks is their power managent policy.
Put simply, in iOS, except a few very special cases, you applications will
be stopped when they go into background. So the foreground app get
to throttle something actually means to slow it down, just for future
reference.
But, yes. A less rigorously enforced policy that mimics what Apple does
with background apps is something I would approve of. If an application
asks permission to run in the background, then that's fine, but I don't
