When will the three column icon menu GO AWAY? God I hate that type of navigation. I'd rather a plain text list, having to scan both up and down AND side to side while looking for an icon that might resemble what you think you're looking for just gives me a headache!
This set has NO colour to help you out, though most phones use TOO much colour which doesn't help either.
and why is the main focus always one row down? Menu's should start at the top left - far more logical, even though you think you're used to this crazy middle of the screen starting point simply because all phones copy it so blindly.
I doubt the iPhone is the best interface possible, but at least it is DIFFERENT - it feels less like columns and more like a list (in rows) and at least the buttons are different colours - and you can move them around.
