On the subject of android phones, only a small selection of them and other
smartphones/tablets actually have keyboards. Surely item #7 for having
keyboard accelerators for every function is a bit of a misnomer if you are
talking about State of the Art? This is definitely not a must have. Computing
is changing and the keyboard, as useful as it is for some users, is very `last
century`.

One person's welcome addition can be someone else's useless visual
clutter! So clearly, the usability of an app should not be dependent on
the presence of what (IMHO) is useless visual clutter much more than
half the time ...
