1.0 out of 5 stars No doubt brilliant for 2006... but it's now 2011., 12 Sep 2011

This review is from: Mobile Interaction Design (Paperback)
Before you buy this book, check the index: you won't find a single mention of touch screen, iPhones, iPad or Android. It's desperately out of date, and I dare say has little relevance to today's market (unless you're dealing with developing world markets).

If you're looking for a book to help with touch screen mobile/tablet devices, I don't think this is it.

Time for a new edition!

4.0 out of 5 stars accessible to a wide audience of developers, 24 Sep 2006
By W Boudville - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Mobile Interaction Design (Paperback)
Jones and Marsden offer us a high level way to design mobile devices. The emphasis is on cell phones. But there is the broader scope of various types of handheld devices, like PDAs. They suggest how to design within the typically severe constraints imposed upon you. Like low power, small screen, a limited keyboard or keypad. The small screen means that menus have to be carefully thought out.

Various ways of prototyping are given.

The book has informal case studies of actual product design methods used by Nokia, HP and other companies. Some of you will find these valuable, as a tangible focus for study. All of this is explained at a level understandable to a broad audience.
