A thread on PocketNow.com comparing the home screen of various versions of the Windows Mobile UI have made me think about what really disturbs me about Windows Mobile. After quite a bit of thinking,. I think that I have found my culprit…it’s the annoying top and bottom toolbars which IMHO are way to wide(especially in landscape mode):
Screen001 The UI evolution of Windows Mobile or Cant someone finally axe the goddamn toolbar?

If the image above wouldn’t be so sad, one could laugh about it for hours. A spreadsheet cell is tinner than the bottom toolbar, and the same is valid for the bottom one.

My personal request to the Windows Mobile team can be expressed easily – but the toolbar size by half. They are still tappable(case frames aid inaccurate users) – and we could get a nice extra bit of information on-screen!
