Basic deck, and the multiple-home-screen mentality Apple esp brought us. Side or other scrolling, pros and cons, indicators of position...

All devices have an Idle screen, originally when the device is not doing anything, now as a launching point or when the user is not specifically asking anything of the device... Must provide access to everything on the device |

May use both. Either way: a screen of icons which when opened reveal drilldown menus, or the primary access is an icon field but additional features or the complete list of applications can only be accessed via a long list or drilldown. Settings may be considered as an application, or a variation??? Consider the "simplefinder" or kiosk entry pages??? |

Drilldown menu - S60 as archetype, but anything really - May be icons or text.
Field of items (usually icons) larger than the viewport. General method is a horizontal scroll to get to other "screens" and one is considered the Idle screen.
