From this week I started UI dsign project for cell-phone with full touch sceen.
Ma client dosen't want a follower of iPhone. (but I think whatever some vendor makes a innovative touch screen based cell-phne the customer should think it is the follower of the Apple iPhone. In this sense the Apple is the pioneer of market.)
What I was amazed by the iPhone was their efforts to teach the pattern of finger gestures.
If you start the iPhone, you should slide the box on bottom line.
This simple action take a role as the gateway for overcoming cognitive hurdle of the first using the finger gestures.
Traditionally the finger gestures were designed with a metaphor of the mouse, click and drag. (unfortunately, the drag was not used.)
However, the iPhone did not take the metaphor of the mouse, but the metaphor of reading with your hands.
We, especially the olders, do not read the book only with our eyes, but alos with the fingers.
The Apple sophisticately took this action as a UI pattern for the iPhone.
I don't have any idea for overcoming the iPhone generously, so I think if I should overcome the iPhone I should generate concrete concept of touch screen based UI pattern for special context.
But I know that is such a big hurdle.
