What's Steve Jobs got against buttons?
The buttonless iPhone, and the sleek styling of other apple products, has taken the Wall Street Journal to musing, "What's Steve's Beef about buttons."According to the article, Jobs' blood-lust for buttons goes back further than you might imagine. "Mr. Jobs was adamant that the keyboard for the original Macintosh not include "up," "down," "right" and "left" keys that allow users to move the cursor around their computer screens, giving it a sleeker appearance," at the cost of utility.
But, in a world where multi-touch technology is allowing buttons to disappear, it looks like real Steve is getting his wish.
