The Elements: A Visual Exploration.
Looks great. Basically a picture book. You’d think that for the price ($13.99) it would be more interactive and that it would include everything one would normally need from a table of elements – like the ion charge, for instance. It’s not like they have to invent this information. For this price, I should not have to buy another app (or book) just to look up facts.
This is one of the classic examples of what I see as a disturbing trend – HD. Don’t get me wrong – I love clear, crisp pictures. What I DON’T like is having to run updates as overnight jobs because they are so bloated that they take forever to download.
