Well, to a point. OMAP3 is significantly more efficient than OMAP2, so an upgrade from the OMAP2420 to the OMAP3430 will get us very similar (if not almost the same) battery consumption and significantly more power.

Because this is a hardware request thread.

Never been an issue for me, but if it's really such a problem file an enhancement request.

I'm assuming you're specifically speaking of the Application manager? If so, it's fixed in Diablo. For everything else, enhancement request.

I don't agree with this one. Vertical real estate is too precious to waste like that, and I've never had an issue with button sizes.

Go vote on the bug.

Why? I'd rather have Nokia focusing on ironing out the core stuff where they're the only ones who can really provide a solution than wasting time in the realm of 3rd-party utilities. Besides, due to the UI Spec, Nokia's first-party solution have to suck. Why anybody wants this stuff from Nokia is entirely beyond me. :\

If you really want an improved IDEA or Simple Launch, then go help out!

You can get both a single and double-wide statusbar clock from third party sources, asking Nokia to duplicate this effort would be foolish.

Actually, the solution I'd prefer here is a much more accessible and flexible layout editing.
