- When people talk about mobile, they always bring up fragmentation. But if fragmentation is so important we have to look at it in detail. We have to break it down more.
- Mobile phones are made of two things: hardware and software.
- Hardware: phones used to be all kinds of form factors but today they have converged on black rectangles.
- Development: there are at least 12 operating systems on the market, each with its own development requirements. This makes transferring code between OS quite difficult. In mobile operating systems, fragmentation is an issue for developers. But is it an issue for designers?
