I didn't like the Startac interface from what I remember. I didn't like anything about it actually. It likely started my whole distaste for flipper phones. Wait, scratch that. That goes to the even older and much bulkier Motorola POS. Hey I was a huge Motorola fanboy. But I've always disliked their phones. Not as much as I've disliked Qualcomm's of course (uuuugh!)
Anyway, they're doing quite well now since revitalizing their industrial design and marketing. Time to take some of that cash and reinvest in some major UI overhaul. And more candybar phones - cuz flips are for dorks. And Asian girls in little outfits in LG and Samsung commercials and press shoots.
