the white text on light backgrounds is unbelievable
seems pretty inconsiderate toward those with impaired vision. there's little contrast, lots of light gray on white with pastel accents.

#182So, and this is perhaps a small detail, it does seem somewhat interesting, that both Google and now Apple, appear to have adopted Microsoft's flat UI approach.

#183I watched the key note with my girl friend - she is technical but still very much has a girls perspective and can be taken as a good representation of her friends. She flipping loves this redesign and I'm pretty certain my not techie iPhone/iPad using parents will too - and that, is was really matters to Apple, that 98% of their market will love it and not just the 2% of us who build for their platform.

Because once the upgrade is installed there's no going back?
Then use one of your friends that has the developer account, or wait till it's on every phone in the Apple Store. Either way, the point is to reserve judgment until you use it. Just like everything else.
"That is iOS7."
"It appears to be different from iOS6."
"That's an iPhone!"
"I see that Apple made this."
"Well this discussion is getting a little bit too heated for me, I think I will go and reserve my judgement somewhere else for a minute."

Why don't you wait until you have a freakin' phone in your hand and try it?
There is Apple marketing material they've made available. It's perfectly valid to make judgements from that in my opinion.

#188Wow. Apple basically took all the shitty parts of Google's design philosophy and scaled it to epic proportions of fail. Take a look at the text screenshot. It is hard to tell where I should touch to start typing. It is hard to tell where the buttons are. Overall, this is incredibly shitty UI.
My guess is, the text box below the message list, which in the same place as it is in every sms app on every modern phone platform, and which is the exact same shape as the text box was in the old iOS sms app (http://i.imgur.com/jSGZADn.png), and which has the word 'send' next to it.
That's just a guess, though. I could be wrong.
