I've been using my N900 for a few weeks now, and one thing I found to be a pain is that if you have enough status menu(when you click on the clock/battery icon) options that it scrolls, its very hard to:
A. tell that there are more options that can be scrolled to, and
B. scroll the list without accidentally hitting a button, especially with your finger.

I'm thinking two potential solutions to this:
1. Make three columns.
Pros:

• Lots more space.
• More buttons accessible from a single page, no scrolling to try to find an option.

Cons:

• May be harder to code
• Buttons will have to be shrunk to fit; some of them with longer text may not work right.
• If you fill up the list, you are back at square 1.

2. Add a visible, wide scrollbar to the right hand side when needed.
Pros:

• Potentially easier to program; scrolling functionality is there already, it would only need some graphics and some stretching of the window.
• Any number of buttons are possible, getting to them would be easier than now.

Cons:

• Less buttons per page
• Scrolling is still needed to access more than the current number of buttons.

What do you guys think?
