I'm not talking about making every phone identical, but for God's sakes, why can't we get simple things like the power button and USB port location and orientation standardized? Would it be that hard?
For example, my Droid 2 had the power button on the top right, my Bionic has it top left. The USB port on the D2 is high on the left with the large side facing the user. On the Bionic it's low left with the small side facing the user. And this is from the same manufacturer!
It seems like a minor thing, but I've had to modify or replace my car holder and desktop holder to accommodate the differing locations when otherwise they would have worked fine. And I know damn well I'll have to do it again for the next phone.
And I want the camera button back dammit!
Ok, I'm done now. I feel somewhat better for having ranted. :-[
