bzoltanamazoniantoad: hello there. I am here to help you :)03:42
bzoltanamazoniantoad: what do you mean by " our UI could use some work"? Do you mean the UI Toolkit?03:43
bzoltanamazoniantoad: What channel you have created the emulator (virtual machine in your word) ?03:44
bzoltanamazoniantoad: the import Ubuntu.Test is fine. What Kit have you created on the first start ?03:45
bzoltanamazoniantoad:  let's check these points one by one and see if there is something wrong.03:45
amazoniantoadbzoltan: back03:49
amazoniantoadbzoltan: Sorry. In the middle of something.03:49
amazoniantoadbzoltan: Well, the UI makes me feel very "restricted" for lack of a better word. I feel like I'm operating windows 2000.03:50
amazoniantoadThe store doesn't open up to a list of general categories, instead you have to begin entering something into the search bar to see the categories.03:51
amazoniantoadI'd like to group my apps according to my own categorization methods, something that apple lets you do with the iphone. But here you just get a listing of installed apps. Which is great, but it lacks organization.03:51
amazoniantoadbzoltan: these are critiques of the ubuntu phone, not of the development ide. Let me get back to you on that in a while. I'm in the middle of writing an app for android and repairing some people's computers.03:52
amazoniantoadSo I might be a while03:52
bzoltanamazoniantoad: sorry, I ahave limited possibilities to help with your feelings :) I am not responsible fro the design. But there are designers who are. Please find them and talk to them about the visual deisgn. I personally like our deisgn.04:00
bzoltanamazoniantoad: I understand that you expect similar UI features as on iPhone. I think the best we can do with that is to accept that Ubuntu is not iOS or OSX, we are different :)04:02
amazoniantoadbzoltan: Sorry, I thought that is what you were talking about. I'm not trying to bash the ubuntu touch (I love it). I'm just saying there is a lot of room for improvement. The phone just seems dated.04:04
amazoniantoadAlso I hear that the newest device that *might* support ubuntu touch will be supported in the US. Which is great news. I just think that ubuntu touch should have a theme more similiar to unity. Not windows 2000.04:05
bzoltanamazoniantoad: as I said, with feelings i can not do much :)04:05
amazoniantoadbzoltan: Haha yeah04:05
amazoniantoadbzoltan: I'll be back in a bit. Just working on some other stuff04:06
amazoniantoadExctied to get developing for touch04:06
bzoltanamazoniantoad:  welcome aboard :)04:06
