Now if only it would upload the entire IKEA catalogue?!
It has always completely baffled me why companies such as IKEA fail to recognise the possibilities of such potential. Maybe this could be a SketchUcation venture? We all design one thing each from the IKEA catalogue, build a library and get this company involved who make this software, then claim a percentage of profits made from sales? Mike? Rich? Whaddaya think?

Didn't know it was already released. It's amazing to see how all kind of apps seem to be migrating to iOS.
I'm more and more under the impression that future consumer-type computers will be mostly iPad clones, and that the traditional PC or Mac as we know it will be for serious work only. Heck, some of my friends never use a computer, only a smartphone.

And their sentences and e-mail replies are three words long. Right?

Ha, ha... sort of. One of them is an architect. He draws what he wants on a paper, then takes a picture with his Blackberry and sends that to me for me to draw it in SU.
Others only use Facebook, instant messaging and YouTube, so they don't need a computer. My parents only use Skype, and they use a Netbook for it, which is overkill.

I bet "precision" isn't a feature that is ranked near the top?
It would be cool to see SU on one of these devices but I don't think my fingers are pointy enough to be accurate.

Maybe you could turn on a grid to compensate for that.

Why not? Can you not use a pen? How about using snap, and then inputting a number representing length? Ala AutoCAD?
