Re: Turn Off Slide-Open Menu

I can get to Email, Messages, and Web Search via keys built into the keyboard (so if it appears while the keyboard's open, there's no advantage), I'm not sure why I'd need to open the bookmarks directly while also having the keyboard open, and I can reach the equivalent of Contacts by just typing. So only the Calendar, Tasks, and Notes remain useful, and really only the last two benefit heavily from the keyboard being pre-opened, if at all. Might be cool to see if we can replace it with something more customizable.

That said, it also doesn't bother me, so unless there's a really strong replacement, I'm fine with it.
To answer your question, I want nothing, haha. I didn't think about TF3D not "working" in landscape, but I really just don't like the menu. It seems to bog down the phone and I never use it anyway. Too many times it seems I slide open the phone and it takes it a few seconds for that menu to go away.
