Re: Honycomb Start

My comments about the changes to the start menu...

The new start menu layout is fine either way, I guess... I didn't have anything against the honeycomb but microsoft has MESSED UP!

The major issue that I see, is that scrolling only goes one page at a time... yet less than 10 seconds later in the demo video, when he scrolls through his e-mail, it doesn't stop at one page, it keeps going just like it's supposed to. Either make it stop a page at a time everywhere (which is horribly inconvenient for people who have to go long distances), or give it some momentum like everywhere else in the UI has.

I think for this reason alone, I won't even try the new start menu, a single page at a time will drive me crazy. Sorry Microsoft, why didn't somebody catch this huge oversight?
