Windows Mobile Devices have Touchscreens - Bigger display buttons would help in quick use

Submitted by knlptl on November 1, 2007 - 2:01pm.

First to do (this is not an advert of Yahoo GO 2, but its good to have some thing to compare with) reviewing the display of new Yahoo GO 2, for Windows Mobile will help to see how bigger tool buttons helps people with PDAs and their Touch Screens.

EQO for Windows Mobile though is nicely designed, it's not 100% in terms of finger input. Tapping on navigation buttons is fine with me, but it feels good when i have a choice of touch input. Which is not accurately possible with a very tiny Y! or MSN butterfly is flashing on top.

However, its not 100%, but it sure is 95% in terms of display (including the today screen plug-in).

I agree. Bigger buttons would help the usability on the Windows Mobile version. I think the best place for this would be on for the tabs.

Agreed. This would have to be a PPC specific change. Larger icons would be a waste of real estate on the smartphone.
