these can all go on the tab on your homescreen, you can also drag them onto your wallpaper to use as shortcuts.
i only use compose message on my wallpaper for a shortcut so its not clustered.

They sound well good, thanks for taking the time to type those out. Is it true that when you turn the phone off, the widgets reset themselves and aren't on the wallpaper?

[Jackk]

nope, your widgets stay there.

[Wayne]

Thanks for all the answers mate.

[Jackk]

anytime dude.

I just wanna pick up on one of the flaws you mentioned:

- Photos look like 4mp and not 8mp.

Its one of my pet hates. Megapixel just refers to the size of the photos it takes, so a 10mp camera can take a picture with a resolution of 10 million pixels (3648*2736). A picture of that size is completely useless to anyone unless you're doing really advanced image editing or want to print the picture out on the world's largest piece of paper. An 8mp photo can't look like a 4mp photo because it just refers to the size, and obviously one size can't look like another Anything over around 5MP is imperceptible if you're displaying it on anything except the world's largest screen/piece of paper. What really matters is the sensor in the camera and how well it takes in light in various conditions and stuff like that.

Sorry for being picky, it just annoys me that the industry use megapixel as such a buzzword and for the most part its irrelavent

[Wayne]

No worries Alex, thanks for that. So 5mp can often look just like 8mp?

[The Professor]

Yeha. My omnia has a 5MP camera and it's terrible compared to other cameras; for example my sister's 2MP point and shoot samsung camera thing. It can just shoot bigger pictures.

It isn't totally irrelavent because generally speaking, out of a 2mp camera and a 5mp camera shooting the same sized picture, the 5mp camera should look better because its a higher resolution but when you get above 5mp its imperceptible anyway. But now I'm confusing myself

[Wayne]

Haha, thanks mate.
