Thanks for the reply guys.

In WinMo, as you say, 'x' will end (but not close) an application but that is not the same as 'back'. I should be more clear. When I say 'back' I mean it in the sense of how you would browse windows on a PC (or UIQ on a P1), in a windows browser you have a back button to take you back one screen or operation. The 'X' in WinMo will just take you out of the app altogether, this can be frustrating and time consuming, at least it was on my limited experience of WinMo on the OMNIA. That's why I was interested to see what looked like a back button on on the TOUCH HD and why I was hoping there woudl be similar on the X1.

Cheers JD

Well, the panels button always takes you back to the panel screen to choose another panel. What specifically are you looking for in a 'back' button. Web browsing or file explorers?


Again thanks for your replies.

What am I looking for? well a button that works like the back button on the P1, short press takes you back one step, long press takes you out of the application you are using.

eg If I entered messaging app I would be given a choice of the type of message I wanted to send, so I chose SMS and get taken to that screen. I realise I made a mistake and wanted to send a MMS, so I short press back button and go back one step/screen and choose MMS instead. Once I have finished with the message app I long press back button and the app and I get taken out of the app back to home screen.

Now I know that the end call button will do the second function I described ie take you back to the home screen but the ability to go back one step as described above with the use of one key is very useful on the P1.

This key on the P1 is multi function ie short press to go back one step, long press to come out of app (I am trying to avoid saying 'close app') and return to home screen, longer hold to lock / unlock phone. Just a very useful key and was wondering if X1 had anything like this. From the sounds of thing the end call key will do some of the things above but not all.

I take the point about the 'Panel' button but say you find yourself making the mistake I described above and wanted to go back to the previous menu, if I just press the panel button I go to panels screen and then select messaging right? ok so when it opens up it is right where I left it because I didn't 'X' the app so instead what I have to do is 'x' the app then select the the messaging panel and press however many other menu options to get to where I want to be when all I wanted to do in the first place is go back one step/menu/screen.

So having written 3 posts on this now it sounds a bit obsessive, it is just a nice function of the P1 and I hoped to see it on the X1 as I found navigating the WinMo OMNIA not as easy as the P1.

Hope that all makes sense to somebody.

Peace and love

I believe they are referring to the size of the screen not being the norm and therefore programs may not fit full screen... not the actual quality of the display...

Thnx Caspa. Also thank you for the URL to the pictures
Yes I'm getting more interested too in X1 the more I see of the UI.

I just feel needs to make the various parts of the UI blend better together. Like for example, this part of the UI got brushed metal feeling but the media panel got light blue background?
If both had brushed metal feeling it would be a nicer user experience.

( OMG I can't believe I just wrote "user experience" >.< )
