True though on a smaller screen it is better to invent/come up with more graphical UIs somewhat like iPhone has it.

Secondly I am very confused why Skype *AND* Fring is on there, both that is, since the later is an agent for the first (among others) and typically the other messengers Fring enabes you to use, are relatively quick to offer their own programs for new a new OS.

Is the touch screen not finger friendly or do they do that so they don't block the screen? I love the UI, it looks very promising. The graphics look rather childish though. Searchlights?
