first of all: I suggest you post that somewhere public as well, so that non- mentors can give you feedback. :) as for the proposal... hmm, I don't really have much to say. that first mockup, though... imagine that person is bored, and sends you ten text messages in a row. "dismiss all" could be good... unless you also dismiss a message from someone important. of course, if the phone also has a little icon indicating that you have unread messages, it's not so bad. (unless you have *my* phone where it takes like ten button presses to get to your inbox, augh). actually, for sms I find myself wishing that the new-message thing would stay on the home screen, even if I have to do something else like make a call first - I want to eventually come back and be reminded that there are messages, and easily go read them all. as for more computer-like devices... I like the way the n900 does IM notifications - the little tiny bubble in the corner that has just a few words in it. I'm not sure about the "mode" thing, though. I mean, even if I'm using it like a computer, when a phone call comes in it needs to be answered or dismissed right away, I can't just go check on it a minute later. so maybe the intrusiveness of the notification has more to do with the application it's coming from than what the device in general was designed for. -- This message brought to you by eevil bananas and the number 3. www.chani3.com
