@ w7.. naah, its supposed to be 5, not 3... i thought it was supposed to be like that too until i did a hard reset a few weeks ago and afterwards, i had 5 columns in landscape. now, its back to 3. naah, i didnt install any start menu cabs prior to this. now i have to scroll almost twice as much to get to the bottom of the list. i have no idea what causes it to switch from 5 columns to 3, but its happened to me twice
