Hi,

Thanks a lot about the comments. I try to answer some of them below.

I noticed that also (pressed top menues and wanted to go back to 
previous page by pressing back button but noticed that back 
Button left the whole home page). 

We will see if something can be done for this. I anyhow like
Those tabs from where you can choose the visible content. This is
nowadays common functionality for example with browsers but it may be
too much to have several layers of tabs (in browser AND on page).

We do not have maemo bugzilla components for ESBox, Pluthon or
Pc-connectivity beta versions. Bug reports can be sent to this
mail address (eclipse-integration at maemo.org) or for ESBox and
Pluthon directly to the garage projects.

For final we have to change the content of maemo-pc-connectivity
package to be true meta package. Now it includes USB configuration
tool but that will be a separate project and installation package 
in garage. I think we do not yet have that configuration tool
project set up in garage so send your bug reports to 
eclipse-integration at maemo.org.

We did not plan to create new category. This is a bug that needs
to be fixed to the final release.
