Tony Fadell Shares New Details on Prototype iPhone Software With Virtual iPod Clickwheel - Mac Rumors
Tony Fadell Shares New Details on Prototype iPhone Software With Virtual iPod Clickwheel - Mac Rumors: We tried everything. We tried having little buttons on the clickwheel so you could click. There was a Nokia phone where they had a circular pattern for the numbers, in hard buttons, and Steve was like "Go make that work." So we tried that.
And we went, "Steve, give it up, it's going to be too hard. It's not going to work." So we were halfway through, like four weeks or five weeks into it, and we said "This is not working." We pushed this for like another four, five weeks to keep trying, and we're saying, "This is a waste of time." But we had to be ready, because that's what he wanted.
