One pretty big shortfall I'm seeing is a lack of integration with the system Address Book. This is a feature I use *very* frequently and makes for a bunch of extra work to copy & paste otherwise. I'm unsure what exactly led to this oversight, but I think it's important to make sure it's on Google's radar.
To report your desired for contacts integration to Google:
1) Open Google Maps
2) Shake your phone in order to give feedback
3) Tell them that you miss integration with the Address Book
They get a lot of feedback, but with enough reporters statistical analysis should put contacts integration on their radar. The more people giving feedback on it, the more likely it will be on top of their todo list.
That's the last straw Facebook! I've had it. I'm deleting my account!
Really.
Soon.
Maybe tomorrow actually.
Who am I kidding? I can't stay made at you.
(See you soon!)
The real advantage of Firefox sync is that is encrypted on the client side, so Mozilla is unable to read your data, not the same with Chrome
That's what I thought too, but apparently Chrome can do that too - it's just not on by default. Go to Settings > Advanced sync settings > Encrypt all synced data.
The problem is, though, that default is the reality for the vast majority of users.
This reminds me of the scene at the beginning of Serenity in which the children question why the Browncoat rebels would reject civilized living.
The Addressbook is being replaced (both back end & front).

The old archaic design & limitations are being tossed for a more flexible & pluggable design.
If it's of interest, they're currently working to replace the whole Address Book.
The old archaic design & limitations (number of addresses per contact, etc) is getting tossed for a more flexible (and I believe pluggable) design.
As it stands there is one page on the internet (on Facebook's site) that can install this sidebar.
Avoid going to that page and clicking the "Turn On" button and you should be golden.
To enable click-to-play for all plugins go to about:config in the location bar and set “plugins.click_to_play” to true.
The feature is considered still under development which is why it's not enabled by default.
Yes, it is.
"...though the goal is to study particles in space, not annihilate planets."
*wink* *wink*
Ah yes, I hear you loud & clear scientists. You want to "study" "particles" in "space".
Just try not to leave the moon in too many pieces while you're studying it...
*grabs popcorn*
This should be fun to watch.
End-game-wise, this will help to transition users and developers away from Flash and to HTML5.
I'd say that's pretty great.
I've been using it in Beta and it works fine.
I think it's due out in one of the next two versions.
This was the exact point that came to my mind.
The spinning magnet is going to need to maneuver into place anyway, why not just eschew the spinning part and once in it's aligned itself, plug in a port, thereby not losing that extra 10%.
I've noticed several design suggestions in your code.
