Does anybody else find the icon tabs of the sidebar too small and hard 
to hit except by carefully aiming the mouse? I was just wondering if it 
would be easier to use and more obvious to users that they can do stuff 
with this sidebar thingy if the icons were larger and more obvious what 
their function is.

Also, the Services tab could be considered as an "out of the way" place 
to put stuff like lan browsing and device access. Is there perhaps a 
better way to organise the sidebar so that users can easily find the 
things they would most commnly want to access? I'm thinking Home 
directory, CD-ROM/digital camera/other devices, Local Network. At least 
that's what I find myself using the most when I have my user hat on.

Ciao,
Gordon
