Farhad Manjoo on the new iPhone (which I won't buy until it has Google Maps):
If I tell you the greatest thing about the iPhone 5 is how it “feels,”
you’ll accuse me of being a superficial aesthete who cares more for form
than function. You don’t care how a phone was built or how it
looks; you just want it to work. But I think that argument misses
something important about what it means for a phone to “work well”: When
you’re holding a device all the time, how it feels affects its
functionality. Or, as Steve Jobs might say, how it feels is how it works.
