Let's hope they will do the same thing on Mac. Maybe they can get some tips from Camino team.

Re:Why Google+ Can Still Beat Facebook on Friday June 15, 2012 @09:31AM (#4116360)
Google+ is dead, just like Ping is dead. The "plus" is just a social network on top of Google products. Ping is a social network on top of iTunes and we know how well that went. People don't like "antisocial" social networks.
Re:LG develops first 5" 1080p panel for smartphones on Monday May 28, 2012 @06:04PM (#4035111)
Sure, this might work. But the extra pixels needed for the bezel will consume battery with current technology. Also, a new kind of proximity sensor have to be developed for these use cases. It will be really annoying to set the virtual bezel manually all the time.

That would affect the user experience of the device. How would you hold the device? How would you play games?

HTC Sensation is an whole-screen device, but the user experience is really bad. I prefer iPhone 4/4S design any other day.
