It is an improvement, very much appreciated, but... its not enough.

Lets assume I just bought a N810. I open the Application Manager because I want to install Canola.

Now I see All. But All includes all categories. There is no user feedback in the GUI about this.

Then there are a lot of doubles like email and mail, comm and Communication. Isn't email/mail communication? Boingo, whatever that may be, is a seperate category. Why not LogMeIn as well a seperate category? And while you're at it, Canola as well? *rolleyes* And, then the one called Applications. Aren't these all applications? A user would ask: what the hell is an interpreter? Doc should be Documenation.

Why not have a more tree-based viewing. For example, several modes in which one can select how it is sorted.
User -> Communication
Developer -> Interpreter

Open Source -> ...
Proprietary -> ...

Offline -> ...
Online -> ...

Like tags.

Ofcourse, the current one stays default, but more cleaned up.
