The old design looked awful. This is a step in the right direction!
I have completely stopped updating a lot of apps because of this new design model that seems to have no grasp of style,ipad capacity or bandwith usage.
If redesigns don't make things work better, stop redesigning crap. This simply forces users to learn a new interface. Knock it off!
