I was more disappointed with the screen design. Not really a full circle, and that dead chunk of wasted screen?!
probably, yes. once you've seen the dead space, you can't unsee it...
How about underneath the screen?It's in the circle, but not part of the screen technically. They have to put the screen digitizer controls, and sensors somewhere.
Hm. I'm not sure how I'd feel about that.At least they should print a logo on it or something...

Hahaha no
And I was thinking more of a subtle "M" logo... something to make it seem more useful than 'it's just a dead chunk of plastic'
in some images (can't find them again, sorry) you can actually see the ambient light sensor, about the same size as it is on most smartphones I think (a bit over 1mm diameter)Somewhere I saw an interview where they said that little area holds the display driver and light sensor. Not sure how much of the space the light sensor takes up, but it would certainly mean any logo couldn't cover the whole thing. It does hurt the aesthetic a bit, but IMO it's not that big of a deal. The bottom was probably the best place to put it, though they probably could've done something creative with that area to make it seem like it was on purpose. Trying to make it blend in sort of ends up making it stand out.
yeah, i hope they have a price soon. any guesses on how much it might be?
I'll be surprised if they price it above $300. Nobody will buy one. I'm expecting something in the $200-$300 range.
