Suggestion for a Google Books-like design of ACV for Honeycomb?
-
One of the best things about tablets is the large and (hopefully) high-resolution screen, but many apps tend to be designed poorly for this because many developers keep the UI from their smartphone design and "stretch it"... which leaves a lot of empty area or simply looks ugly if everything is designed to enlarge.
I recently struck me as a fantastic design for ACV on Honeycomb tablets, would be a mimicry of Google Books app's design in Honeycomb: http://www.xoomblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/renderscript-books.jpg
This is a really neat design, and it would also work great for displaying a comics collection!
The design doesn't have to be a 3D experience: one could have a design where the user scrolls through the collection in a sideways-only manner (without the "field of depth").
The automatic thumbnail would of course be the very first page of that particular comic issue (or maybe have the option of being able to search for a cover through Comic Book DB and saving them?).
So, what what do you think about this design idea, devs and faithful users?
Cool but unnecessary?
Would this benefit your user experience?

agree with hxh103, i recently boght an android 2.3 tablet with high resolustion capacitive screen,it's nice!

Generally just some better layout, the present layout looks like some first-app developers not able to at least utilize a bigger screen..
Perhaps making a tablet version if phones isn't suited for a better layout.
Would like to volunteer for beta testing of a better/tablet design update.
Howdy, Stranger!
