Hi Diego & Levi,

thanks for your feedback. To be honest I was inspired by Canola. I really like 
the Canola user interface and I think that this is a good way to use and 
navigate a device such as the 770 or the n800. 

I would like to see more apps that take advantage of the "finger navigation". 
It just feels more natural to tab with your finger on the screen than using a 
stylus for an undersized button, eh?

I am not a ui designer - so far ;-)  I don't know what would be the best way. 
However, fire up Gimp and draw your idea. This is an experiment and I hope it 
encourages other developers to think about this way of using the 770 / n800!

Regards Krischan
