Just a comment about the stability of the Beta 2. I continue to have it fail on me. It doesn’t even feel as stable as the Beta 1. Some problems still exist for me (I can’t print, for example). Then Notes will fail (yes, I send in the failure reports using the automated failure mechanism.
I have uninstalled and re-installed twice.
But the failures are seemingly random and even when I try to make it fail, it won’t. This level of inconsistency must be driving your DEV folks crazy, and as a user, I’m bothered by it as well.
Then, the inconsistent behavior, depending on which pane is “forward” makes keyboard use difficult. Example, just starting Notes, the “Day at a glance” pane is “front most”, but you wouldn’t know it. Whether a window or it’s outline has keyboard control is impossible to tell.
The features are great, but the user interface needs to be tightened up so unexpected behaviors don’t occur. Example, Write and send an e-mail message. Without using the mouse, try to close a window using CMD-W. It appears that the Notes inbox message list is front-most, but CMD-W simply thinks you are typing a W in the search box. Very vexing.
