@codinghorror It's because UIKit uses CoreAnimation. Good post on why subpixel anti-aliasing and CA don't mix. http://bit.ly/c ...

@codinghorror
for lack of subpixel rendering on iPhone, replies suggested two reasons: rotation is common, and hardware acceleration. Valid enough.

even on the iPhone 4, subpixel aliasing would provide 3x apparent increase in horizontal res.. so why doesn't Apple do it? odd.
