hi slender. i actually thought about changing themes yesterday but i couldn't because the the "extended string" labels got in the way... i couldn't edit the desktop config because i didn't have access to the "wheel" ...i tried it now... i tried it now... and the first time i did it, the unit froze a bit and i got the "hildon home not responding" alert ...but that's probably because i rushed the system and tapped away on the screen immediately. i did it again and it seemed to switch themes a-ok.
