Command Tab Screen
I am used to using Alt Tab in Windows to quickly switch between multiple window screens i have opened ( Multitasking 
). The similar key combination and feature is also present in Mac. The key combination in Mac is Command + Tab which is similar to Windows’ Alt + Tab. But i find Mac’s Command+Tab feature not of great use.
A good read i found today from Apple watch in eWeek
There is another shortcoming that hampers iPhone 3G as a phone: Battery life. Standby life is great. In my testing, the battery lasts for days if the phone isn’t used. But 3G calling drains the battery surprisingly fast. Worse: Mixing telephony and data or other features. Apple’s mobile delivers great GPS coordinated with Google Maps. But it’s a battery-life sucking app. Battery life wouldn’t an issue if the battery could be swapped like the T-Mobile G1. I know people that recharge iPhone 3G two or three times a day or keep in it car-docked whenever they drive. A trickle of charge comes here, there and everywhere.
Other shortcomings come where Apple strangely chose to digress from standard features found on most other mobiles. SMS/MMS sending is makeshift. Apple expects people to send pictures via e-mail. Video is lacking, too. Have you talked to teens lately? These are commonly used capabilities.
Every time i see a movie in my Mac with of course in its default Movie player - QuickTime, I always get irritated with its Seek bar. I have a habit of seeking back the movie to re-watch the favorite scenes in them. To do this i generally move the seek bar cursor to reach to that scene time stamp which i just found good. Doing this in Windows Media player - Windows default media player is very easy because the Seek bar in Windows media player is wide enough to move the seek cursor to particular time stamp . (More to this Windows media player plays audio video both not like Mac which has two players for Audio and Video i.e., iTunes and QuickTime ). Basically Windows media player’s seek bar extends from very left of the screen to ver right leaving long enough place to seek the movie to desired time stamp.
But in contrast QuickTime in Mac has a very small controller which cant also be resized ( why ???????? ) . The controller fits all controls including seek bar . Moving the time stamp cursor in QuickTime seek bar never reaches to the exact desired time stamp . Because of this i hate to see movies in QuickTime . And even if i see movies in QuickTime i use the fast forward/backward button to reach to the desired time stamp to re-watch my favorite scene . I find this particular control in QuickTime very frustating . What about you?
