An observation - Ive lost a few calls (~5) now due to wsod on resume -
until this is fixed (and after so long, is it likely to ever be fixed?)
- making the bottom left 1/4 of shr-today accept, and bottom right
quarter reject would be nice when the thing wsods on resume (the TS
still works - just cant see what you are doing) when a call comes in.
Yes its a hack, but unless wsod is fixed, what alternative do we have.

Oh, and sliders suck :)

Got laughed at the other day when I dragged out the FR to look up a date
- I had the screen brightness down a bit as I was previously using it
indoors - finger operation of sliders isnt good (besides having to
navigate layers of menus to get to it) - I might have laughed in
frustration myself if I wasnt cringing from the derogatory comments the
FR interface got - not a good advertisement :(
