He probably sent him a link to one of those much better iOS flat GUI redesigns from independent artists.

Awesome video and complete validation of my theory that Ive is trying to eliminate design from user interfaces and make it so that anyone can do it even with MS Word.

Lowering the barrier to app creation is all this flat, modern crap is about. The end user's experience is of no consideration at all because they can be easily convinced _anything_ is cool. I can't wait for the backlash.

Everyone at apple with taste is either being forced out or quitting so when that backlash comes apple will be left holding an empty bag.

The redesigns probably changed the color of the shift button.

Maybe it's just me, but I now have a hard time telling if the shift button is pressed or not now. I'm probably too used to the old colours.
