>The question to be asked, is whether these people are in touch with the decision-making community- which no longer means CFOs and corporate IT departments with big budgets and "you can have any color as long as it's black" authority, but Jack and Jacinda Public walking into the mall or into T-mobile wanting a Galaxy or iPad to run the same apps as their phones, for $100 with a data plan. The tablet model can never involve people lugging around multiple instances of these things.
My guess is Jack and Jacinda will like Metro just fine. It's intuitive, friendly. The trick is to get it in front of them.
